A vacation! Something new, fascinating, relaxing but with a subtle magical and poetic vein. A thought becomes reality in our minds. Liguria. Suggesting the Cinque Terre. But is there a valid alternative without having to mix with the crowd that characterizes them?
Lerici, in the magnificent and vague scenery of Gulf of Poets is a very special experience.
Located in the easternmost part of the Gulf of La Spezia, it is one of the most famous Etruscan hills of Liguria.
Its harbor dominated by an imposing Castle has for centuries been a commercial exchange point, a fortress for military control and travel destination and medieval pilgrimages.
It overlooks the Gulf of Poets, a place chosen by novelists, painters, poets and journalists as a source of inspiration.
Famous quotations from the great Italian literature of the fourteenth century as Dante, Petrarca and Boccaccio devoted a Lerici.
The main places of interest of the village are the Castle of San Giorgio (XII – XVI century) with its imposing ramparts and a very large pentagonal tower. The Castle preserves the perfect Gothic style as is evident from the Chapel of St. Anastasia in its interior.
The tour continues for the geo-paleontological museum and the squares of Poggio and San Giorgio, the parish church of San Francesco d’Assisi, the oratory of San Bernardino and the palace Doria.
Lerici, however, is not only a village and a culture, but a sea and lovely beaches.
The beach of Venus Azzurra, the Lido of Lerici with a beautiful sandy beach set on the seafront. The beaches of Fiascherino pebble and rock, clean water in a lovely setting.
Excellent services offered by the beaches. Stunning location, large parking spaces adjacent to the beaches, convenient shuttle services connecting to the center.
And finally, let yourself be enchanted by renowned Ligurian cuisine. An ancient tradition of tones, harmonies of so natural and so simple flavors.
Typical and typical products are the Dairy Soup at Lericina.
Lerici, a trip that will satisfy even the most demanding desires.
