San Fruttuoso from the ferry |
The Patterson guided walk was a little more strenuous today. We had a very steep climb through the woods over Mount Portofino, which thankfully was in the shade. There was then a steep descent down to the beautiful bay of San Fruttuoso.
The bay can only be reached by foot or boat and there is an Abbey and the Andrea Doria Tower there. We had lunch overlooking the bay and went swimming in the lovely clear water. We caught the ferry to Camogli, where we ate very rich ice creams, and later caught the bus back to Santa Margherita. There were superb views from the bus as it wound it’s way over Mount Portofino. After a bottle of wine at the hotel, we went out for another excellent meal.
