Alassio

Built around a sandy bay on the Ligurian Sea, Alassio grew into one of the Italian Riviera’s established seaside resorts. The town sits on the Baia del Sole, with Gallinara Island lying offshore; its protected reserve is a defining feature of this stretch of coast. Alassio’s long beach runs beside the Budello, the old centre’s narrow pedestrian lane, where shops and cafés occupy tightly packed historic buildings. Near the seafront, the Muretto di Alassio is covered in ceramic plaques bearing the names of artists and public figures, a local tradition begun in the 1950s.
