San Terenzo Bay & Golfo dei Poeti

A Window Over the Gulf of Poets

This live webcam looks out over San Terenzo, a storied seaside hamlet of Lerici on the eastern shore of the Golfo dei Poeti. The camera captures the village beach, its protective breakwater and the tranquil waters of the Ligurian Sea.

Castle and Coastline

To one side rises the imposing 15th-century Castello di San Terenzo, while the historic Villa Magni sits nearby along the shore. The gentle arc of the coast and the stacked houses of the borgo give the view its timeless Riviera character.

Islands on the Horizon

Across the gulf, the silhouettes of the islands of Tino and Palmaria and the village of Portovenere mark the far shore. The open seascape draws sailors, kayakers and travelers to this celebrated stretch of the eastern Italian Riviera.
