Boccadasse & Corso Italia, Genova

Liguria

Corso Italia is Genova's two-kilometre seaside boulevard, running from Albaro to the tiny bay of Boccadasse, where fishing boats are still hauled up between candy-coloured houses. The flat, paved walk with its gelato stops and rock terraces is one of the city's best dog outings, especially at sunset.
