[2024 Camogli Attraction] Travel Guide for Castello Della Dragonara (Updated Dec)

Trip to Camogli 🇮🇹

It was a short trip to Camogli Beach, Italy. It is located in the Liguria region of Italy. Camogli is a charming fishing village known for its colorful houses, scenic waterfront, and rich maritime history. Camogli has a history dating back to the Roman era. It became a significant maritime hub in the Middle Ages, known for its robust naval fleet. The town's name is believed to derive from "Case delle Mogli" (Houses of the Wives), as the women managed the village while the men were at sea. We visited Camogli Beach upon arrival. The beach is known for its pebble shore and clear blue waters, offering beautiful views of the Ligurian Sea. It's definitely is a great spot for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying the picturesque surroundings. We really love it 😍 📍Via Giuseppe Garibaldi, 16032 Camogli GE, Italy We also visited the Castello della Dragonara. This medieval castle overlooks the harbor and provides a glimpse into Camogli's defensive past. It offers stunning views of the town and the sea 🌊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍Via Isola, 16032 Camogli GE, Italy We also explored the Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta. This beautiful church, dating back to the 12th century, features impressive baroque interiors and a striking facade. 📍Piazza Giuseppe Mazzini, 16032 Camogli GE, Italy As for food, I would strongly recommend you to visit Da Paolo. This place is known for its fresh seafood and traditional Ligurian dishes. I would recommend you to try out the Focaccia di Recco. A local specialty, thin focaccia filled with cheese. Also not to forget the Trofie al Pesto. Pasta with pesto sauce, a Ligurian classic. As a cheese lover, I just love them very much ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💰 €20-€40 per person. 📍Via Giuseppe Garibaldi, 140, 16032 Camogli GE, Italy And also the Restaurant: La Rotond.This place offers a mix of seafood and Italian cuisine with a beautiful view of the sea. One of my most favourite food is the Risotto ai Frutti di Mare (Seafood risotto) and Acciughe Ripiene (Stuffed anchovies) which is a local delicacy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍Via Piero Schiaffino, 1, 16032 Camogli GE, Italy 💰€25-€50 per person. #beachlife #trip #vacation
