The Bay of Silence one February morning.
One beautiful February morning, exactly February 29, 2024, armed with my ever-present camera I immortalized the beautiful bay that is the symbol of my town, Sestri Levante, but also of my region.
With the sun at my back kissing the houses, the photos came out really well!

The Bay of Silence in Sestri Levante in February.
There are times of the year and certain days that the Bay is even more beautiful.
Like the day I took these photos (and many others that I will slowly add); it was February 24, 2024 and it was a truly beautiful morning with the sun behind us.

The Bay of Fables in Sestri Levante in March.
A couple of photos of the splendid bay (the less famous than my Sestri) in the last month of March.
I love summer but the sea is very beautiful even in winter.

Here's where the bay is located:
The isolated rock of Monterosso al Mare in the Cinque Terre.
On the rugged coast of the Ligurian Riviera, where the deep blue sea crashes against the rocky cliffs, lies a jewel of Italian beauty: Monterosso al Mare and the Cinque Terre. This stretch of coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, enchants visitors with its breathtaking landscape, colorful villages and rich history that is reflected in every corner.
Monterosso al Mare is the western gateway to the Cinque Terre, a group of five picturesque coastal villages located along the Ligurian coast. This charming seaside village is divided into two distinctive parts: the old town, with its winding streets and pastel-colored houses, and the new town, with its sandy beaches and modern tourist services.
The beaches of Monterosso al Mare are renowned for their beauty, with golden sand and crystal-clear waters that attract swimmers and sunbathers from all over the world. Here, visitors can enjoy a relaxing day at the seaside, take a stroll along the promenade or enjoy delicious seafood dishes in the restaurants along the coast.
In addition to Monterosso al Mare, the Cinque Terre includes four other charming villages: Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. Each of these villages has its own unique character and charming atmosphere, with narrow cobbled streets, colorful houses and breathtaking views of the sea.
Vernazza is famous for its picturesque natural harbor and its medieval tower that dominates the coast. Corniglia, located on a hill, offers spectacular views of the terraced vineyards that extend to the sea. Manarola is known for its breathtaking sunsets and its cobbled streets that open onto splendid views of the Gulf of Poets. Finally, Riomaggiore is characterized by its colorful tower houses and its vibrant cultural life.
The Cinque Terre offers a wide range of activities for visitors of all ages and interests. Nature lovers can explore the many hiking trails that connect the villages, crossing Mediterranean scrub forests and walking along the cliffs overlooking the sea. History and culture buffs can visit the local museums, ancient churches and watchtowers that dot the coast.
In addition, the region is renowned for its excellent Ligurian cuisine, which includes traditional dishes such as focaccia, farinata and pesto genovese. Visitors can enjoy these delicacies in the many restaurants and trattorias in the area, while enjoying the authentic and welcoming atmosphere of the coastal villages.
Monterosso al Mare and the Cinque Terre are true treasures of the Ligurian coast, where the beauty of nature blends harmoniously with the rich history and vibrant culture of the region. With its enchanting beaches, picturesque villages and endless opportunities for exploration, this part of Italy continues to conquer the hearts of travelers from all over the world. Whether you are a nature lover, a history buff or simply a gourmet looking for authentic flavours, Monterosso al Mare and the Cinque Terre promise an unforgettable experience that will remain etched in your memory forever.

The Bay of Silence in Sestri on February 1, 2024.
A winter photo of my bay, the symbol of Sestri Levante.
In winter there is something magical about walking along the shoreline and listening to the sound of the waves lazily crashing.

The Bay of Silence in Sestri Levante in winter.
My town is very spoiled in summer but in winter, for its true lovers, it is even more beautiful.
It is almost always deserted and the colors are always spectacular, both in sunny and bad weather.

The Bay of Silence on February 29, 2024.
Last winter I was at home and I took the opportunity to, as they say, put hay in the barn for the months when I will be on the ship.
This was the bay of Portobello, known by all as the Bay of Silence, the renowned beach of my Sestri Levante.

The Bay of Silence in Sestri Levante on February 19, 2024.
Probably in winter, if you are lucky enough to be in this place on a nice day, there is no more beautiful place to take a short walk accompanied only by the relaxing sound of the waves that gently caress the beach of the Bay of Silence.

Due passi a Sestri Levante sabato 15 giugno 2024.
Questa mattina ho fatto due passi in centro e ho scattato qualche foto, veramente erano molte di più, per mio marito che è lontano da casa.
Gli piace sempre vedere la sua cittadina anche se solo in foto!
