Rent a Car in Downtown Lavagna

Lavagna is a picturesque coastal town on the Ligurian Riviera, located 5 km east of Chiavari and about 40 km southeast of Genoa. With 3 rental companies in the center, there's a reasonable selection to explore Liguria. From Lavagna, you reach Portofino Peninsula at about 30 km (35 min) west, and the Cinque Terre-like villages along Riviera di Levante to the east.

Sestri Levante with its beautiful Bay of Silence is just 10 km away. Avoid driving into the narrowest parts of coastal villages – park outside and walk. Summer traffic on SS1 Via Aurelia can be intense; plan trips early in the morning.

Rent a small car – parking spaces along the Ligurian coast are often very tight. How far is it from Lavagna to Cinque Terre by car? About 50 km east towards La Spezia, approximately 55 minutes via the A12 motorway.

Can I drive to Portofino with a rental car from Lavagna? Yes, about 30 km and 35 minutes, but be aware that traffic to Portofino is limited in summer – park in Santa Margherita Ligure instead. Are there parking options in Lavagna center?

Yes, there's parking along the harbor promenade and on the town's outskirts, but they fill up quickly during summer.
