Set along the quieter stretch of Spiaggia Libera San Giuliano, this beach bar offers a relaxed spot to enjoy a drink while taking in the calm sea views. The atmosphere is laid-back and unhurried, with outdoor seating that lets you soak up the gentle breeze and watch the waves. Visitors usually come here for a simple coffee, an espresso, or to unwind with a beer, cocktail, or a glass of wine, often accompanied by casual bites served right at the bar.
This place feels like a genuine local refuge away from the busier parts of the Genoese coast. It attracts those who appreciate a quieter beach experience—families with kids, dog owners, or anyone looking to rest without the usual crowds. The staff’s easygoing and welcoming manner adds to the feeling of familiarity, especially for anyone able to exchange a few words in Italian. Payment options are modern and convenient, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the setting without fuss.
Overall, it’s a spot where the pace slows down naturally, encouraging visitors to linger over a drink or two while simply enjoying the understated charm of the coastline neighborhood.”

5 Nice spot on the beach with view to sea. Silent, cozy and perfect to rest with drink or just cup of coffee.
5 Beautiful view - fun beach bar. Everything costs one extra euro if you consume it at the table.
5 Stelli sul Mare is a beautiful little spot tucked away along the Genoese coast — quiet, scenic, and full of character. Whether you’re looking to relax by the water, enjoy a swim, or just sit and take in the sea breeze, this place is perfect. It’s not a tourist-packed beach, which makes it even more special. The setting feels local and authentic, with a laid-back vibe and stunning views of the Ligurian Sea. The water is clean, and even though the beach area is rocky (as many are in this region), it only adds to the natural beauty. Bring a towel, maybe water shoes, and just enjoy the calm. There’s often a mix of locals chatting, people sunbathing, and others just peacefully enjoying the view. It’s a great spot to take a break from the city without having to go far. Highly recommended if you’re in Genoa and want something low-key and scenic.

5 It's just the perfect place to lie down after a day at work. Or to spend the day in if you're lucky enough and don't have to work. Cheap beach loungers, free shower, an amazing bar with crazy bartenders. That's the spot if you want to enjoy the beach without moving out of town
5 Great hidden gem. Great views, really friendly staff. Stayed here for a bit just enjoying the view. Also do vegan crossiant. Really fresh and a surprise jam in the middle.
