About the beach
Lavagna beach, within Lavagna (the province of Genoa, Liguria), is a pebble beach on the Ligurian Sea.
“Lavagna beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
The beach faces southwest (208°). It is most sheltered when the Gregale (NE) or Tramontane (N) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Libeccio (SW) or Ostro (S) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
