San Fruttuoso is a small fishing village located on the Italian Riviera in the Liguria region, between the towns of Camogli and Portofino. The village is accessible only by boat or on foot via a hiking trail. It is best known for its abbey, the Abbazia di San Fruttuoso, which is a national monument of Italy and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The abbey was founded in the 10th century by Greek monks, and it was dedicated to the martyr Saint Fruttuoso. The abbey's architecture reflects the various historical periods it has gone through, including the Romanesque style and the Baroque style.
San Fruttuoso is also a popular destination for scuba divers, due to the presence of the Christ of the Abyss statue, which was placed underwater in 1954. The statue depicts Jesus Christ with arms outstretched, and it is located about 17 meters (56 feet) below sea level, making it accessible to divers.
The village itself is charming and picturesque, with colorful houses clustered around a small bay. There are a few restaurants and shops in the village, but it remains relatively unspoiled by tourism. The surrounding hills offer scenic hiking trails and stunning views of the Ligurian coastline.
