Its 340 km coast, better known as the Italian Riviera, is a continuous line of long beaches and cliffs. Its capital Genoa divides the coast into two parts: the Riviera di Ponente, lies between the city and the French border and is by long sandy beaches; stretch that extends towards Tuscany is called Riviera di Levante, here the mountains hang over the coast with high cliffs which give way to spectacular coves in some spots.
