Encyclopedic overview
Location of the province of La Spezia Tino is an Italian island situated in the Ligurian Sea, at the westernmost end of the Gulf of La Spezia . It is part of an archipelago of three closely spaced islands jutting out south from the mainland at Portovenere. The largest of the three, Palmaria, lies to the north and the tiny Tinetto to the south.
In 1997, the archipelago, together with Portovenere and the Cinque Terre, was designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
