Marina di Chiavari - Calata Ovest is the ideal place to moor to
enjoy the spectacle of the Gulf of Tigullio, the picturesque stretch of
coastline overlooking the Ligurian Sea, located to the east of the Gulf
of Genoa. Bounded by Punta di Portofino to the north-west and Punta
Manara to the south-east, Chiavari boasts a strategic position: it is a
stone's throw from the famous tourist resorts of Santa Margherita,
Sestri Levante, Camogli and Portofino, but is also almost equidistant
from Genoa and the Cinque Terre, which can be reached by a few miles of
sailing. The Marina is centrally located in the elegant town of Levante
Ligure, with its prestigious past and lively present. A city on a human
scale, Chiavari has an interesting architectural, artistic and natural
heritage. In the vast historic centre, among the characteristic streets
and squares, shops and restaurants, various events take place throughout
the year: the Antiques Market, the Market of Flavours and Traditions,
the Festival of the Word.

The town's unique porticoes have remained intact over the centuries
and will soon be recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which is
why Chiavari is also known as the 'Town of Porticoes'. The town is also
an Episcopal seat and hosts several museums, such as the Diocesan
Museum, the Archaeological Museum, the Museum of the Risorgimento and
the Chiavari Chair Museum.

There is one colour that is more important than the others at Calata
Ovest: green. Protecting the environment is our priority. Since 1987
Chiavari has been awarded the Blue Flag for the high quality of the
facilities and services that make the waters of the Marina and the
entire waterfront crystal clear.
