Alassio

In Alassio you can start the day with a walk along the promenade, stop for breakfast and spend a few hours on the sandy beach. The sea accompanies the life of the city and becomes the background of the small holiday habits. In the historic center awaits the Budello, the characteristic alley running parallel to the coast, among shops, buildings and sea views. It is the place to stroll without hurry, browse the shop windows and take a break to taste the Baci di Alassio, the city’s signature sweets. A stop is the famous Muretto, with its signed tiles: you can look for the signatures of the personalities who have left a memory of their passage. If you love walking, you can explore the hills along trails and ancient mule tracks. The Via Iulia Augusta, in the stretch between Alassio and Albenga, combines history and Mediterranean landscape, with views of the coast. For those who choose a second home here, the pleasure is also this: alternating days of sea, walks in the center and excursions in the greenery, following their own pace and the seasons.
