A Taste of Camogli
Explore the colorful fishing village of Camogli with me. We will visit a selection of local food shops, tasting unique dishes, wines, and street food along the way. Camogli is a picturesque seaside village with colorful houses lining a pebbled beach cove. It has a long culinary history and is still a working fishing hub. It is also conveniently located on the ferry lines which depart regularly for Portofino and the Cinque Terre.
