In September 2017 my wife and I are planning a trip to Italy, including the Cinque Terra. Two questions -
We plan to stay in Monterroso to enjoy the beach at times. From online pictures it appears that there are some underwater rocks. Is the beach water sandy that you can be in water in bare feet, or should we plan some type of footwear while in the water?
We probably will spend three nights in Monterroso and travel between villages by walking, local train or ferry. Cinqure Terre is planned to be relaxing for us, with other parts of italy more on the go. Is a 3 night-4 day time in Cinque Tere OK, or too much, too little?
Thank you
