Monterosso on the north end of the Cinque Terre chain is largest of the five hamlets and makes a good home base because it has 20 hotels, the only sandy beach, excellent restaurants, and the start of the hiking trail.
You arrive by train at Monterosso in the newer section built in the 1970s, then walk through a short tunnel into the Old Town. Right away you see the beautiful beach with the umbrellas spread out before you.
Of course, for the shoppers, there’s always that chance to find the special souvenir or elusive outfit in little, out-of-the-way boutiques that you would never find at home or on the main shopping circuits, so there’s something for everybody here in the Cinque Terre.

Wow, such a beautiful place. We walked from Rio Magiore to Monterosso and it was an adventure. The views were stunning. Thanks for sharing this tour. -Henry

I was there in early May 2019. Beautiful little village. The boat ride to the other four villages was not running due to rough waves. This can happen often so just know that the boat ride is subject to the wave conditions.

Ironically, a Yankee comments on culture in Cinque Terre. He keeps on boiling and shows only masses of tourists who flood these beautiful places.
