About the beach
In the municipality of Genova, in the province of Genoa (Liguria), Voltri beach is a pebble beach on the Ligurian Sea.
“Voltri beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
Orientation: south (198°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Tramontane (N) or Gregale (NE), keeps it calm; the Ostro (S) or Libeccio (SW) hits it from the sea and can raise waves. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
Bathing water rated excellent by the EEA (2025 season).
