Among the most evocative tourist resorts in Savonese, in Liguria, Celle Ligure stands out for its picturesque cove, nestled among the municipalities of Varazze and Albisola Superiore is characterized by a sandy coastal view on which gently verdant hills degrade.

A postcard scenario in which to immerse yourself to spend a relaxing time among sun, sea, nature and sport, thanks to a mild climate that makes Celle Ligure suitable not only for classic holidays in August but also for stays at different times of the year.

Reaching this wonderful seaside village is very simple: by car, leaving at the Celle toll booth of the Genoa-Ventimiglia motorway, by train, thanks to the convenient railway line that stops a few tens of meters from the sea or by plane, landing at the airport “Colombo” which is about 29 kilometers away and using the efficient local bus lines.

A holiday in this pleasant Ligurian village is a dip in a palette of colors, from the blue of the crystal clear sea to the golden sand, to the green of the Mediterranean scrub that surrounds the territory, with varied botanical species such as pine, olive trees and crops.

The name of this location comes from the huts and warehouses used once by fishermen to store boats and other tools. Fishing that has remained also today the activity that animates the ancient western area, with the fishing village that enchants the tourist with its small colored houses well arranged along the beach and the characteristic caruggi.

Moving east instead is the tourist vocation of the country to be the master, with bathing establishments rich in all services, villas, hotels and outdoor sports equipment. Once you reach the resort on the Riviera del Ponente, the ideal for inaugurating your holiday is to take a walk on the seafront that connects the ancient village to the Piani: you go along the beach for more than one kilometer admiring the waves break on the shoreline but also the large gardens that fill the area with bright colors, ideal for finding a bit of coolness from the summer heat.

At the ends of Celle, the Bottini Park located to the west and the Parco della Natta, which is located in the east, are the perfect places to organize excursions with picnic in the middle of the trees, admire the view or the remains of ancient buildings, undertake always different paths thanks to the dense network of paths.

However, the beaches are the true soul of Celle Ligure, free in some cases, transformed into bathing establishments in others: they are two municipal ones, equipped with showers and toilets.

One is the 'brush beach' while the other is located a few steps from the mouth of the Rio Ghiare.

Two other free beaches are located in San Bastian and, reachable along a ladder on the seafront, near the former Milanese colony. Among the beaches equipped with bathing establishments, a few steps from the nearby town of Albisola Superiore, the Spiaggia della Torre is certainly the most suggestive. Reachable along a path of about 200 meters that from the Aurelia is immersed in an exciting visual scenery and offers a breathtaking view: to the right of the beach, with its golden sand and, at protection, an imposing rocky cliff, stands out the Priest Hole, a huge rock that rises from the sea characterized by a curious central hole, the result of centuries of marine erosion, against which the waves of an extraordinarily clear and crystal clear sea break. It is the ideal place to immerse yourself in its warm waters, swim and then relax on the beach of white and golden sand. Thanks to their clarity and cleanliness, the waters that embrace Celle Ligure are ideal for organizing dives to discover the bottom of rocks and grainy kidney, to photograph the aquatic species that populate the seabed.

Mare also means summer sports such as sailing and windsurfing, for which it is possible to practice thanks to schools in the village but also volleyball or soccer on the beach, to have fun with friends by refreshing, at the end of the match, with a relaxing swim. To cool off after a sunny day, instead, is the botanical journey to discover the natural wonders that surround the country. We start from the hamlet of Sanda to reach that of Pecorile, also reaching, at 261 meters high, the top of Torre Bregalla, immersed in the beautiful Mediterranean scrub, among local flora and fauna.

To complete the rich tourist offer of Celle Ligure, the historical monuments such as the Parish Church of San Michele, erected in the first mid-1600s, the Oratory of Disciplinated and the Church of Santa Maria Assunta.
