Spiaggia dell' Olivetta, Beach in Portofino, Italy.
Spiaggia dell'Olivetta is a beach on the Ligurian coast featuring a pebble shoreline bordered by Mediterranean vegetation and clear blue waters. The small cove offers a quiet retreat with minimal development visible from the shore.
The beach served as a traditional stopping point for local fishermen in the early 20th century as Portofino's maritime economy grew. This fishing heritage remains woven into the quiet and undeveloped character of the area.
The beach maintains its unspoiled character through protective measures that prevent commercial expansion along the shoreline. Visitors experience a place shaped by local habits rather than tourist facilities.
The beach has no facilities, so visitors should bring their own supplies and equipment for the day. Access requires roughly a 15-minute walk on foot from Portofino's center.
Visitors can spot traditional Ligurian fishing boats painted in distinctive bright colors that pass by the shore according to regional maritime customs. These vessels reflect a long-standing craft tradition still practiced in local fishing communities.
