The main lane is Via XXV Aprile, with painted fa\u00e7ades and slate doorways. Staying here means breakfast, then choosing your bay, dinner in the lanes and an evening stroll without touching the car.<\/p>\n<p>The downsides: the old town is a limited traffic zone (ZTL), so ask your host how to get there and where to park, and in summer it&#8217;s busy. In summer 2026 the Bay of Silence also had capped access from 1 July to 31 August, with a maximum of 450 people at a time: staying nearby gives you no priority, but it lets you get there early.

In July the Sagra del Bagnun celebrates the local fishermen&#8217;s anchovy soup.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a good choice if you want calm and a roomy beach, but you&#8217;ll need a short ride to Sestri&#8217;s station and the two bays.
