Le Cinque Terre
Eighteen miles of rocky coastline full of coves, beaches and deep water, topped by a chain of mountains that run parallel to the coast. A wide variety of natural heritage. Walking paths and trails with breathtaking views. Five villages: Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore, which overlook the sea. These, in summary, the Cinque Terre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997. I recommend Vernazza by direct boat from Lerici. After stopping for dinner or a sunset aperitif to see only return via train and bus from La Spezia. For the lazy I reccomend Portovenere that can be reached by boat direct 30 minutes from the square of Lerici.
