About the beach
In the municipality of Cogoleto, in the province of Genoa (Liguria), Spiaggia Libera Europa is a sandy beach on the Ligurian Sea.
Orientation: south (160°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Tramontane (N) or Mistral (NW), keeps it calm; the Ostro (S) or Sirocco (SE) hits it from the sea and can raise waves.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough. The seabed type is inferred from nearby beaches mapped on OpenStreetMap.
Bathing water rated excellent by the EEA (2025 season).
