Parco Naturale Regionale di Montemarcello-Magra-Vara

The few beaches scattered along the harsh coast between Montemarcello and Lerici originated from landslides which brought to the sea great quantities of material; the latter where shaped afterwards by the waves motion. You can reach the small beaches only by sea or through steep paths, therefore they are particularly valued for their peacefulness. The beach of Punta Corvo is also called "spiaggione" (big beach) for its dimensions; its sand is dark grey since it originated from the surrounding stones of the same color. The water is so clear that the rocky sea bottom can be seen at a few meters from the shore.
