Vignasse beach, within Alassio (the province of Savona, Liguria), is a sandy beach on the Ligurian Sea.
“Vignasse beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
The beach faces southeast (130°). It is most sheltered when the Mistral (NW) or Ponente (W) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Sirocco (SE) or Levante (E) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
