When considering Italy's chic side, few destinations shine more brightly than Portofino. As you reinvigorate your spirit with an espresso in Portofino's world-famous harbor, the constant influx of luxury yachts reminds you that you are in a most lavish travel destination. Yet, as you contemplate the crystal blue ocean, your senses tell you that Portofino is a town where you are meant to enjoy simple, but extremely delightful, pleasures. You finish the last sip of espresso and begin to consider your next move: a lazy afternoon at the beach, perhaps, or treating yourself to a delectable lunch...? Torn between the two, you order a crisp glass of sparkling prosecco to help you through your dilemma!

And one flute of prosecco turns into two, but this isn't a problem because, after all, you are on vacation! Realizing that beginning the day sunbathing will tire you and render you unable to indulge in any of the sites, you decide to begin exploring Portofino on foot. You start with the town center to gaze at the pastel colored homes and the tiny churches. As you pass the Piazza Martiri dell'Olivetta you eye a few clothing items that you envision will look excellent on you-but sensing the truth of the maxim time flies when you're having fun, you decide to leave the shopping for another day. While you're still in town you sit down for a relaxing meal where you only too gleefully add to your day's wine consumption. Sated, you begin an extended journey along the ocean in the direction of Portofino's neighboring peninsula. Your walk is strikingly beautiful, which you attribute at least in part to the extravagant flora gracing the coastline. After visiting a few of the sights-Castello Brown and the Church San Giorgio-it is time for some fun at the beach. Truth be told, you are getting a bit fatigued, but in the spirit of youth you rent a jet ski, an activity that proves remarkably entertaining. But now you are exhausted and you lay in utter peace in the Portofino sands for a good while, dreaming of the wondrous creations that the local chefs will present you with tonight at your soon-to-be-enjoyed feast!
