Faro di Portofino is a scenic lighthouse located at the tip of the Portofino peninsula, offering one of the most relaxing and atmospheric viewpoints in the area. It’s a great place to escape the crowds from the village and enjoy the sea in a more peaceful setting.

The walk from Portofino is short but very enjoyable, passing through beautiful coastal scenery and shaded paths. Once you reach the lighthouse, you’ll find a small bar where you can sit, have a drink, and take in the open views over the Ligurian Sea.

It’s especially nice in the late afternoon or around sunset, when the light over the water creates a calm and golden atmosphere. Compared to the busy harbor below, this area feels much more quiet and laid-back.

If you have time while visiting Portofino, the lighthouse is definitely worth including in your route, especially if you enjoy short walks with rewarding views.

Tip: Combine it with a walk to Castello Brown or a loop through the coastal paths for a more complete experience of the peninsula.
