Manarola, Cinque Terre, Italy

I made a quick stop in Manarola in the Cinque Terre (in addition to visiting Riomaggiore.) I didn’t have much time there because a giant storm was arriving in the evening. Everything was closing and I needed to take a train back to where I was staying. It was still a nice place to visit for a few hours.

There are trails between the Cinque Terre towns. The walkway pictured led around the corner and towards the next town.

Text on the tiny sign behind the rocks. The water was crashing 6 feet over that rock to give an idea of how rough it was.

During the summer you can swim here, but when the winter rolls around the water is no longer safe.
