Italy Bogliasco

The Bogliasco promenade, a short distance from Nervi and Genoa, is a true coastal gem and a must-see. This splendid path continues to extend from Nervi towards the east, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Ligurian Sea.

This point was created on the rocks and you can enjoy unique views especially at sunset. You can easily descend via a ladder and it is easy to position the tripod and equipment.

The entire walk allows you to manage yourself on different points of view, I recommend using a wide angle, but it is possible to find fantastic spots even with medium or telephoto lenses. What you need to know is that going in the direction of the marina, it is preferable to photograph the sunset, while the opposite direction is made to photograph the sunrises.

Traveling to Bogliasco by train is by far the most convenient and recommended option for foreign visitors. Italy has an excellent rail network, making this charming coastal district easily accessible.
