About

Guvano beach is located on the Ligurian Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 37th place out of 51 beaches in the La Spezia region 9.8 km away from its center, the city of La Spezia. It is one of the beaches of San Bernardino settlement, just 0.8 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, among the mountains.

It is a tiny bay with blue water and rocks cover, so you don't need special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

Guvano beach coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities, sup-surfing, sea kayaking.

To get to the beach, you need to walk along a mountain trail about 500m long. Parking is located at some distance, within 300 meters.

6 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Spiaggia di Fegina, which has a rating of 8.7.

Guvano beach (La Spezia) region (French Riviera sub-region) is located outside the San Bernardino settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

8 Very good

Although I had read a few reviews that warned about the beach being difficult to reach, I decided to give it a try anyway. Contrary to what Google Maps suggests, the entrance point is not where you would expect it to be. To get there, you need to walk about 1km from Corniglia to Vernazza, passing the supposed end point of the Google Maps route to the beach. Once you cross a narrow concrete bridge, the path down to the beach begins where the fence on the left side of the walkway ends. The descent is quite steep and requires careful footing, but the effort is worth it. The beach itself is not very large, with mostly large stones to lie on, and entering the water can be challenging due to strong waves and rocks. Nevertheless, the beach is secluded and offers a sense of privacy that many will appreciate. Overall, I would recommend this beach to those seeking a tranquil and intimate setting.

Although the beach was devoid of people, which was a refreshing change from the bustling crowds at other nearby beaches in Cinque Terre, it was quite challenging to reach. It's important to note that one must trek down a steep and slick path to get there. While the climb back up was relatively easier, we simply weren't mentally prepared for the journey.

4 Frustrating

Getting to this beach in July is no easy feat, as it is officially closed and the path leading to it is overgrown and steep. The journey is not for the faint of heart or those who are out of shape. It can be quite time-consuming, especially when it starts to get dark. My girlfriend and I even dubbed it The beach of death because she was skeptical we would make it.

8 Very good

The beginning of the path is quite simple to navigate until you reach a residence with a fallen tree, after which it becomes a bit uncertain. Moreover, accessing the beach is extremely challenging due to the prevalence of landslides. Nonetheless, if you are able to reach the beach, it is a remarkably secluded and exclusive experience.

10 Exceptional

Embarking on a hiking expedition from Corniglia to Vernazza is an absolute must. The trail is not too challenging, ranging from low to medium difficulty, and there are plenty of spots to rest along the way. However, the breathtaking views that await you at the end of the hike make every step worth it.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Guvano beach (La Spezia) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Guvano beach (La Spezia) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Guvano beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
