A village that feels like it was pulled straight out of an old postcard, with pastel-colored houses reflecting on the sea and a tiny harbor scented with nets and salt air. Boccadasse, a district just east of the city center, is a true escape from the city’s pace—an enclave suspended between the sound of waves rocking the fishermen’s boats and the calm that wraps around you as you pause on the pier, gazing at the horizon.
Wandering through the narrow alleys of this ancient village means uncovering the truest essence of Genoa and Liguria, far from the crowds, amidst surprises and age-old traditions. By simply following your curiosity, you’ll stumble upon the stories, secrets, unexpected corners, and little details that make Boccadasse a place to experience in wonderful simplicity.
