I don't know why, but foreign tourists tend rather to go west of La Spezia, to that very well-known area called Le Cinqueterre, while Italians mainly go east of La Spezia, that is here in Lerici or just to other nearby villages. Of course there are exceptions in all directions.
We found Lerici nicely colourful and lively. The weather was absolutely splendid, as it appears in this photo and all the terraces were crowded…
