Things to do in Vernazza

Why you should go

Ninety seconds on Vernazza

The best natural harbour on this coast and, by most accounts, the prettiest of the five villages. A flood in 2011 buried the main street and the village was dug out and rebuilt.

  1. Castello Doria

    Castle · 30 min

    The eleventh-century watchtower on the rock above the harbour, climbed by a stepped lane from the main street. The circular terrace at the top looks straight down on the only natural port in the Cinque Terre.

  2. Chiesa di Santa Margherita d'Antiochia

    Church · 30 min

    A Ligurian Gothic church standing directly on the waterfront, so close that storms break against its east wall. It is entered unusually through what was the apse end.
