Boccadasse on the coast of the Sea of Liguria is part of the Italian city of Genoa Originally a mariners part of town Boccadasse is now popular with families of Genoa looking for a day out in a older town seaside setting. Ye olde worlde boats and buildings (some being restored) are a marvellous setting for a day / evening out with a fine sunset and some gelato.
