We have two nights booked for Monterosso which for us is the gateway to the Cinque Terre ( five Towns) we carry our luggage down the long road above the beach through the tunnel echoing beautiful piano music as we enjoy the sights and sounds.
Most of the beach is owned by private businesses marked by the color of beach chairs and umbrellas that you can rent for 15 Euros. You have to walk past all the matching umbrellas until you find the free beach with mis-matched umbrellas or the that is on the rocks.

We walk through the town, past the church into the piazza through the arches and after a long climb up the hill, we arrive at our Bnb . They show us our room and give a set of keys for the the inside door, outside door and the electricity. Each morning we have a wonderful Italian breakfast with home made cakes, fresh fruit, yogurt and cheeses.
Since it it is very crowded with tourists during the day, I go out at
6:00 Am to paint.

Later in the day when it got really hot, I went for a swim at these rocks. I had to walk from the free beach at the end of the town to here. The water was very clear and refreshing but it did take two hours to get there, swim and walk back.
