Top Local Tips for Monterosso Al Mare

Convenience Monterosso is your choice if you're arriving to the Cinque Terre by car. Parking is much more abundant. However, the big minus is that it is the "busier" of all the towns. The reason for most to visit is to relax, so the other towns are much more "charming". Vernazza is, by far, the most popular choice to spend the majority of tourist's time.

Angelo's Boat Tours Discovery in Cinque Terre, Monterosso al Mare. "Angelo's Boat Tours" on the waterfront, right on the boat dock in the old village. Angelo, with decent command of English, offers private swimming, snorkeling ans sunset tours along the Cinque Terre coastline. The snorkeling is very dramatic as the water is extremely clear and deep right up to the cliff. he knows the secret caves, waterfalls, and beaches after spending his entire life on the water in this area. Angelo's family is one of the five oldest families in Monterosso, known for fishing for anchovies "al Lamparo", as his family has for the recent 8 or possibly 9 centuries. The church and cemetery are full of the Benvenuto family crypts. His friendly wife Paula provides the best picnic ever for a small extra charge, which turned out to be our best meal in Italy. She cooks only organic and completely fresh foods from their "horto" (garden) on the hill, and her fresh pesto pasta, eggplant compote, served with ice-cold Prosecco or homemade fresh lemonade make for the most amazing memory and amazing day in our entire trip! Book ahead because they can get very busy in August! A pricey 60 euros per hour (groups of 1-4) and 75 euros per hour and worth every penny for larger groups might discourage some, but pool your money and do this tour! It is stunning! +339 314 0582 or 333 318 2967. Paula speaks English (she's American), Angelo's is also quite good. paula55@libero.it

Driving to Monterosso For those of you who like adventure - then a drive to Monterosso is for you!!!! Once off the main freeway the roads start to narrow and the cliffs start to appear. The drive is a hair-pin, twisty road all the way down to the township. Be careful you do not miss your turn off as there are two sides to the town. We missed ours... then had to make our way back up the hill, to then go down again. For those of you not up for adventure - take the train. Although as long as you drive slowly and not at night you will be fine. Driving to Monterosso was the most adventurous aspect of our trip travelling around Italy!
