What to do at Ferragosto in Camogli and Tigullio: beaches, evening events, fish dinners and the Stella Maris tradition.
Ferragosto in the Tigullio is the peak of summer: packed beaches, evening events and seafood dinners in every village. Here is how to enjoy it best.
In Camogli: Stella Maris
On 5 August Stella Maris takes place, one of the most evocative traditions: thousands of floating candles are lit on the sea in honour of the Virgin.
Recommended beaches
To avoid the crowds, choose lesser-known beaches like Punta Chiappa or the coves of the Marine Protected Area. Early morning arrival recommended.
Where to dine
Typical Tigullio trattorias propose Ferragosto menus with fresh fish. Booking required well in advance.
