Genoa in late September is quiet in the best way. We stayed a short walk from Boccadasse, a little fishing village that’s technically part of the city but doesn’t feel like it - colorful houses, a tiny harbor, a beach club mostly closed up for the season.

We took a train down to Bogliasco and immediately fell in love with the beach - wow. Fewer people, better light, and the kind of coastline that makes you understand why nobody’s in a hurry here.

We left wanting to go back before we’d even finished unpacking.
