Tinetto, Protected islet in Porto Venere, Italy.

Located in the Gulf of La Spezia, Tinetto forms part of a small archipelago stretching southward from the Ligurian coastline near Porto Venere.

The islet gained international recognition in 1997 when UNESCO designated it as part of the World Heritage Site along with Porto Venere and Cinque Terre.

Tinetto contributes to the Mediterranean maritime landscape as part of a group of three islands that represent the natural extension of Porto Venere.

Access to Tinetto requires arranging boat transportation from Porto Venere, as the islet remains uninhabited and lacks permanent structures.

A distinct subspecies of wall lizard, Podarcis muralis tinettoi, exists exclusively on this small 4.69-hectare Mediterranean islet.

Location: Porto Venere

Part of: Portovenere, Cinque Terre, and the Islands (Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto)

GPS coordinates: 44.02351,9.85126
