Cinque Terre Honeymoon
You’ve probably heard of these five colorful villages along the Ligurian coast before, but have you ever considered a Cinque Terre honeymoon? With incredible seaside views, varied inland landscapes, and picture-perfect villages, this area of Italy provides a charming setting for your romantic vacation.

The largest of the five villages, Riomaggiore, is known for its scenery and awe-inspiring murals. Then there’s the resort-style Monterosso, illustrious Vernazza, and hilltop Corniglia known for its Vernaccia di Corniglia wine. There are plenty of other charming villages on this stretch of coastline as well, all worth a visit and a wander…
