Beach Riva Ponente

Beach Riva Ponente is a picturesque beach located east of Genova. It is known for its unique combination of sandy and rocky terrain, which adds to its natural charm. The beach is popular among locals, particularly during the summer months, which can result in it being quite crowded. Despite its popularity, the beach maintains a clean environment, although the water quality can vary. The beach is situated in a small province, with the nearest supermarket approximately a 12-minute walk from the village. The local shops, including a butcher, are noted for their higher prices. The area lacks fast food options, with the local cuisine primarily consisting of focaccia. Access to the beach can be challenging without a car, as there are no taxi services available in the area. Despite this, Beach Riva Ponente remains a popular destination for those seeking a traditional Italian beach experience.
