Thanks to the beautiful beach with crystal clear water, tourism began to develop early in Monterosso al Mare. Monterosso al Mare is not only a tourist magnet in the summer months. With its mild climate and clean fresh air Monterosso attracts visitors from near and far year-round. There are beautiful hikes starting from Monterosso and a well-developed infrastructure. It is easy to catch a train or ferry back if you went on a one-way hike or got caught by the weather. Off-season, the accommodations with a window or balcony to the sea are available while owners are back in Milan to make money. What a relaxing moment to sit there with a good glass of wine watching the sunset. The best restaurants offer a varied Mediterranean cuisine with fresh seafood. Enjoy!
