Sestri Levante
The city of the two seas
Just a narrow strip of land connects the colorful resort town to the old Island, creating two splendid, separate bays: the Bay of Fairytales, with its stretch of sandy beach, and the Bay of Silence, where the typical fishing boats, or gozzi, rest on the beach next to salt-covered fishing nets drying in the sun.
