Sunday 7th August Stella Maris festival in Camogli
The event has its origins in 1400 and has its highlight in the laying in the sea of thousands of (biodegradable) candles lit in honor of the Madonna. In the morning the cannon shot announces the departure of the Dragun who, followed by paved boats, takes the parish priest to the altar of the “Stella Maris” located on Punta Chiappa, where Holy Mass will be celebrated.
In the evening, while the floating candles are placed in the water, the Dragun accompanied by the canoes, parades in a play of lights and music.
We have organized special departures from Genoa Porto Antico, Nervi and Recco to reach Camogli!
