Boccadasse is a historic fishing village in the city of Genoa, located in northwestern Italy. Nestled at the eastern side of the Corso Italia, the main seaside promenade of Genoa, Boccadasse captivates with its picturesque charm, colorful houses, and pebbled beach. This quaint neighborhood seems like a world away from the bustling city life, with its narrow alleys and traditional houses stacked closely together, all leading down to a small bay with fishing boats. Renowned for its beauty and atmosphere, Boccadasse has been a source of inspiration for artists and poets over the years. Visitors can enjoy gelato from a local gelateria while strolling along the beach or indulge in fresh seafood at one of the many restaurants overlooking the sea. Despite the modern developments in the surrounding areas, Boccadasse has retained its authentic character and continues to be a beloved spot for both locals and tourists seeking a glimpse of Genoa's maritime heritage.
