You step out of the van onto a sun-baked quay as gulls quarrel over the morning catch and the church of San Pietro angles itself toward the sea—this is Portovenere. The town’s black-and-white striped church and the jagged headland give way to a ribbon of villages clinging to cliffs: Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, Corniglia and Monterosso. The sea dares you closer with light that changes the stone from ochre to gold.
