Let's explore the western part of Liguria, my area of birth, a not well-known region, less touristic, with several hidden gems that i'll share with you.
In this little guide we will focus on the area of the province of Savona.
Forget about all that stereotypical videos on Istagram about Italian summer: i'll show you the real one, lived by a local who likes a bit of adventure in his experiences.
Did you know, by the way, that this is the zone with the highest number of "Bandiera Blu" in all Italy? It's a certification given only to beaches that meet certain standards in terms of water and infrastructures quality.
How to reach:
You can reach all the places in the list by:
- motorbike: it's surely the best option to avoid traffic and to save some time for the parking, just rent that Vespa, slip between the cars, admire the landspace and live the Italian dream !
- bus: line 40-40/ these buses travel from Savona to Finale Ligure and viceversa along the coast.
- car: Ligurian riviera has strict streets, there are often renovations and there aren't many places where to park your car, keep it in mind!
- bike: a valid option for sporty people but be careful, people in this area drive a little sporty!
Keep in mind that the nearest train stations in this area are:
- Savona
- Spotorno-Noli (Located in Spotorno)
- Finale Ligure
