It didn't get much of a write up in the travel books we read before we visited, but Camogli beach…read moreturned out to be extremely charming. The beach sits at the bottom of a hilly town, where colorful building facades face the water. On one end of the beach there is an old church, and on the opposite end there are tree capped hills and cliffs. Overall, the scene is beautiful. The beach itself however, as a destination to swim and suntan, is certainly not the best we've seen. It's more rocky than sandy, and space is severely limited. That said, I would definitely recommend checking out this cool town and its beach. My only advice would be to bring all of your essentials (sunscreen, towels, chairs) beforehand, because the few shops that have them near the beach charge a fortune.

The free beach in Camogli is really lovely and my husband and I go every year. The only thing I…read morehave noticed over the last couple of years is that the life guards that are hired are more interested in checking out their reflections in shiny object and though you can hire umbrellas and sunbeds their unfriendly attitude really put me off. 5 stars for the beach and wonderful Camogli and one star for the staff that work there.

Our all-day water-side waiter Nico, his brother who carved our fresh sea bass at lunch (didn't catch his name!), and Jeremy at the check-in desk were all incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. This kind of service is rare and truly appreciated. I can't wait to come back tomorrow! J'ai passé une journée parfaite sur les transats de la plage des Marinières ! Le cadre est absolument magnifique -- juste au bord de l'eau dans le charmant village de Villefranche-sur-Mer -- mais ce qui a vraiment rendu l'expérience exceptionnelle, c'est l'équipe sur place. Nico, son frère et Jérémy étaient incroyablement accueillants, attentionnés et chaleureux. Ils se sont assurés que nous ne manquions de rien et ont vraiment rendu notre journée inoubliable. Un service comme celui-ci est rare et précieux. J'ai hâte de revenir demain !

The infrastructure (umbrella, chairs, etc.) are all brand new and you can see that management take care of the business.
