Why go
Travel first to Nervi while energy and daylight are strong. Walk through the Parks of Nervi, then choose a section of the Anita Garibaldi promenade if conditions are calm. Return by local train and stop near Boccadasse for its small pastel bay and Corso Italia. The two anchors are separated, so do not attempt the entire coast on foot. This route is best in fair weather; museums in Nervi can replace exposed walking if rain arrives.
