Albissola Marina

Albissola Marina extends along 3.2 square kilometers of the Ligurian coast, with sandy beaches bordering the Mediterranean Sea at an elevation of 3 meters.

The settlement originated as Alba Docilia during Roman times and split into two distinct areas following barbarian invasions in the late Western Roman Empire period.

The municipality maintains a strong ceramic arts heritage since the 1500s, with numerous active workshops producing traditional and modern pottery throughout the town.

The town provides direct access to public transportation connections with Genoa located 35 kilometers east and Savona situated 4 kilometers southwest.

Local ceramic artisans continue centuries-old pottery techniques in their studios, creating pieces that represent the traditional designs of the Ligurian region.
