Around the cost from Rapallo to Portofino there are some stunning houses and yachts. Stopping in Portofino can be tricky, mega yachts titanic size moore up in the tiniest bay you have ever seen whilst us plebs are left to anchor outside of the port without being in the way of ferries and other traffic. 

Portofino is gorgeous and very small, there is a castle and church at the top with beautiful views. Things tend to be pricey so maybe try and aperitivo instead of a full meal there. If you are in tune vein for splashing out 💰 you can try to get a place at Cracco (hugely renown Italian chef) which opened a restaurant there. 
Also get your binocular out for celebrity spotting (we saw Tommy Hilfiger yachts for instance).
Make sure you carry on from here until Camogli (gorgeous and more authentic place) and you can stop to San Fruttuoso on the way where you can see a beautiful abbey and a +2m height Christ sank in the sea that you can see on good visibility days from the boat or scuba to it. It was placed there to honour the death of Dario Gonzatti one of the first Italian scuba divers who died during an immersion in 1947.
