Portofino Lighthouse
Mejor época para visitar
Late afternoon, about an hour before sunset, when the golden light turns the coastline and sea into a warm palette of oranges and pinks.
Consejos para el presupuesto
Access to the lighthouse area and surrounding trails is free. The real cost is getting to Portofino; save by parking in Santa Margherita Ligure and taking the scenic 15-minute bus or ferry instead of paying Portofino's premium parking rates.

Acerca de
Datos rápidos: Situado en la punta de la península de Portofino, este faro de rayas rojas y blancas ha guiado barcos a lo largo de la costa de Liguria desde 1917. Su luz parpadea una vez cada cinco segundos y puede verse desde hasta 16 millas náuticas de distancia.
Destacados: Desde la terraza del faro se obtiene un panorama de 360 grados donde el azul profundo del mar de Liguria se encuentra con el verde exuberante del Parque Regional de Portofino. En días despejados, se puede divisar todo el Golfo de Tigullio e incluso vislumbrar Córcega en el horizonte.
Consejos de expertos
- Wear sturdy shoes; the last stretch to the lighthouse is a steep path with uneven steps.
- The best photos are from the trail just below the lighthouse, where you can frame the tower against the sea.
- Skip the midday crowds by coming early morning or during the golden hour before sunset.
- Bring binoculars to spot boats, dolphins, and the distant outline of the Cinque Terre coast on clear days.
