Fancy a late afternoon dip in the Mediterranean? Drive down to Varazze takes about 1Hr 20mins. Drive through the town, and park in the free parking at the Marina. Wander by the luxury yachts to the breakwaters and swim off the boulders. Then potter back into the marina for an early evening drink, followed by a pizza overlooking the boats. Back home by 10.30 refreshed and salty.
