  • The Marine Protected Area of Portofino, Italy
    Ocean & Coastal Management 44 (2001) 39–60 The marine protected area of Portofino, Italy: a difficult balance Paola Salmona*, Debora Verardi Facolta` di Architettura, University of Genova, Stradone S. Agostino 37, 16123 Genova, Italy Abstract The Portofino promontory extends for 13 km along the northwestern Italian coast. This peninsula has a rough coastline, steep seabed, and high indices of biodiversity, both in its terrestrial and marine ecosystems. In 1935, a terrestrial protected area was established, preventing the intense urban development and mass tourism that characterises nearby areas today. Presently, the economies of the small towns in the area are based on elite tourism and recreational boating. Based on an analysis of the uses of the area and their impacts on the coastal ecosystems, we suggest that the present activities significantly degrade the area’s environment. In 1998, the national government created a marine protected area surrounding the peninsula. Some local authorities and many stakeholders from the nearby communities opposed the designation, fearing a decrease in tourism and stricter control over recreational activities. Two potential alternatives exist for the area: (a) maintaining a traditional system with short-term economic benefits; or (b) choosing an innovative, environmentally sound system of management providing intermediate and long-term economic and environmental benefits. # 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved. The Portofino promontory, located about 25 km east of Genoa, juts into the Ligurian Gulf and possesses 13 km of coastline along the Ligurian Sea. The peninsula is a hilly area that reaches a height of 610 m at the summit of Monte di Portofino.

Whether on your own, with your family or with a partner, whether you are cycling or walking, in the Cinque Terre area fun, uncontaminated, wild landscapes, and breathtaking corners are just around the corner. The spectacular landscapes, the coast etched by the Mediterranean Sea and mountains behind the Ligurian sea, the bays that mirror that special light from the clear skies make the Cinque Terre a unique experience . Each village has its own special attractions and is rich in the best Italian folklore, food, etc ….. There is something here for everyone. You will never be disappointed. The "Cinque Terre", where "Terre" (lands) stands for maritime medieval fishermen’s villages, are a landscape included by UNESCO among the “World’s Heritage” due to their beauty, and the particularities which characterize this territory. The Cinque Terre, the “Five Lands“ or the “Five Villages” (Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, Monterosso) is famous all over the world, mainly thanks to its paths and walks which wind round the coast or reach the sanctuaries above each village. The breath-taking view can be enjoyed by everybody: young or old. Public transport (train, ferryboat, bus, etc..) offers an ideal easy trouble free way to enjoy the Cinque Terre at its best. The Five Lands are a group of five picturesque tiny villages along the coast surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and woods.

  • Cinque Terre
    Cinque Terre Welcome to the ItalianCoast Cinque Terre, which translates to “the five lands,” is one of the most dramatic sites along the Italian Rivera. Once brushed aside as a fly over destination, the five villages that comprise this medieval-era coast – Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore – are now a top vacation spot for anyone looking for an old-world Italian experience. The ancient villages, the first of which was founded 643 AD, and the surrounding hillsides are all part of the Cinque Terre National Park and were declared a Unesco World Heritage site in 1997. Your colorful, coastal adventure begins with a flight into your designated airport, where ground transportation will whisk you away to become acquainted with your yacht and crew. Once guests have settled in, the real fun begins with the first stop on your luxury private cruise: Monterosso al Mare. The rugged terrain of this quiet seaside escape will leave all in awe. Whether you choose to spend your time admiring historic cas- tles or the lively, local churches; wandering the narrow streets while staring up at the vernacular, vibrant architecture; jumping into a popular swimming hole with the local; snorkeling reefs teeming with life; or simply shopping till you drop – you’ll find yourself wishing the adventure will never end! Monterosso al Mare You’ll find Monterosso al Mare located at the center of a natural gulf, which is protected by a small artificial reef. The village is divided into two distinctive parts: old town and new town, which are split by a single tunnel that was built in 1870.
