Lerici (SP) - San Giorgio Castle - Gulf of Poets - Liguria

Pearl of the Gulf of Poets and source of inspiration for their works... #tuttitaly

Lerici (SP) - San Giorgio Castle - Gulf of Poets - Liguria

Lerici is one of the pearls of the Gulf of Poets, an ancient fishing village and a famous tourist and seaside resort. Its castle overlooking the sea, close to the old town that climbs the hill, is known worldwide.

From the Gulf, you can enjoy spectacular sunsets behind Portovenere, Isola Palmaria, and Isola del Tino. These are close to the Gulf of Poets on the opposite western side.


Every year, tourists from all over the world are attracted by promenades along the promenade, by the sea with its beaches, by the history of the Castle, and by the coves immersed in the green of the Mediterranean scrub and in the blue of crystalline waters that are found along the coast.

Here you will feel immersed in poetry, both for the atmosphere you breathe and the charm and romance of the landscapes, admired from various perspectives.


But that's not all ... Near Lerici, in 1987, the twelve-year-old Ilario Sirigu found some fossil footprints from 220 million years ago, which were then attributed to dinosaurs and other now-extinct creatures. How many mysteries are there still to be discovered?
