Tra Camogli e Portofino, in una profonda insenatura nella frastagliata costa del Promontorio di Portofino, sorge la celebre Abbazia di San Fruttuoso di Capodimonte nell'intatto borgo marinaro omonimo. Dopo la prima frequentazione monastica, il complesso di San Fruttuoso di Capodimonte fu umile abitazione per pescatori, spesso covo di pirati, poi proprietà per secoli dei Principi Doria: un luogo assolutamente unico, dove l'opera dell'uomo si è felicemente integrata con quella della natura. Sono visitabili il complesso monastico del X-XI secolo con il Chiostro, la Sala Capitolare, la Chiesa; e le tombe dei Doria e il corpo a mare gotico del XIII secolo.
We enjoyed the amazing hike from portofino to san fruttuoso. It was blazing hot but the secluded beach at the end was amazing. Highly recommend but bring a ton of water!

The castle is not accessable to visitors, so you can only see it from the outside (so it's free), it is after all uninhabited, basically a ruin, but overall a beautiful structure which makes a lovely view when gazing out over the sea. Set on a rocky cliff, it's a peaceful place to just sit and watch the waves crash against it. Lovely on a blue-sky-day. You can take nice pictures of the bay of Camogli as it offers a good view from there. It's also a great place to watch the sunset from, so romantic!
