Vernazza questions
Can I visit Cinque Terre from La Spezia cruise port?
Yes. La Spezia station is a short taxi or walk from the port, and trains run often along the villages.
Which Cinque Terre village is best?
Vernazza and Manarola are the most photographed. With one day, pick two or three rather than all five.
Is there a beach in Vernazza?
Just a small pebbly one by the harbour.
