Varazze

Small Ligurian town on the Riviera di Ponente with a seafront position, a strong café and restaurant scene, and an unusual concentration of churches for its size. Varazze sits between the coast and the Ligurian Apennines, with the Monte Beigua Natural Regional Park close by in the hills above. The local economy has long centred on shipyards and yachting, giving the waterfront a working character alongside its tourist appeal.
