I have already visited Genoa, but never with the intention of going to the beach.
I've read a bit about the city and, apparently, many people say that Genoa doesn't have any beaches and they recommend other cities nearby.

So, is it true? Is Genoa really a city with a seashore but not even a beach?
It sounds a bit strange to me, what about the locals? They must be the most unlucky people, living in such a beautiful city, right next to the seaside, and not being able to go to the beach in their own city :D
