Village
Porto Ceresio is an elegant and relaxed village on the southern shores of the Lugano Lake. Founded around 1000 DC as fishermen village, it firstly became a tourist attraction at the beginning of the last century in the Belle Epoque era.
Recently it has benefited of its strategic position on the beautiful lake, of its views over the Alps and of its proximity to many cultural and sightseeing itineraries to attract new generations of visitors. Its recently completed walk on the lake makes it a little Venice surrounded by mountains.
