Portofino is a village on the Italian Riviera coastline, southeast of Genoa city. Its renowned "Piazzetta", overlooking the harbour, hosts pastel-coloured houses, seafood restaurants and high-end boutiques. Portofino is very well known for the super-yachts which every summer tie up in its gulf. A path leads from the Piazzetta to Castello Brown, a 16th-century fortress and museum with art exhibitions and panoramic views of the town and the Ligurian Sea.
