Discover Sestri Levante, a headland<br />

divided into two bays, the “Baia del<br />

Silenzio” and “Baia delle Favole” the<br />

latter bay named after the famous<br />

author Hans Christian Andersen who<br />

lived in the area during the 1880s. The<br />

main attraction of this Italian Riviera<br />

town is its serenity, charm and nature.<br />

Quaint bed and breakfasts adorn the<br />

coast and are dotted around the hills.<br />

The main attraction of Sestri Levante<br />

is the opportunity to mingle with the<br />

locals and join in with how they live<br />

their life in this Riveria paradise.<br />

Finally, on our list of Italian Riveria´s secret gems is Ravello.<br />

By far the highest located, most peaceful and virtually traffic<br />

free resort. Ravello was a bolt hole for some of Hollywood´s<br />

icons including Great Garbo and Jacqueline Kennedy and<br />

the whole area still oozes that reserved sophistication and<br />

understated glamour, as you would expect for a leading or<br />

first lady. Visiting during spring time gives you a chance to<br />

witness the lush blooms from the gardens, the bright purples<br />

and pinks from the flowers that grow here from cyclamen,<br />

bougainvillea to the enticing smells of herbs bursting from<br />

the terracotta pots. The hills are abundant with rows of olive<br />

groves and lemon trees. This particular location is Italy´s<br />

perfect Dolce Vita!<br />
