Porto Venere is a small Italian town on the Ligurian coast.
The village boasts historical churches, a fabulous hilltop castle, great shops, and breathtaking views. It makes for a great stop outisde of Cinque Terre.
Take the time to take a dip in Grotto Byron which is so named for Lord Byron who used to spend time at the gorgeous grotto. The water is clear and warm and has some good snorkeling.
Take a walk up to the Church of St. Peter which boast two historical buildings. Walk through the cute alley ways that make up the town and browse the cute shops filled with jewelry, pesto, and more.
Enjoy Porto Venere!
