The beach is a combination of sand and rocks, with clean water. However, on some days the water can be quite dirty. We spent two weeks there in August. It's a small province and the supermarket is a 12-minute walk from the village. It's worth noting that they close on Sundays between 13:00-16:00, which is unusual for a tourist destination in the summer. The small shops and butcher are quite expensive. There are no fast food options, but most Italians eat focaccia. It can be difficult to get around without a car, as there are no taxis in the area. The population is mostly Italian.

The most beautiful beach located to the east of Genova is undoubtedly the one that I had the pleasure of visiting. Its pristine waters and soft sand make it the perfect spot for a relaxing day under the sun. It's safe to say that this beach is the nicest one in the area, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and picturesque seaside experience.
