Savona : Profile

Docking

The port of Savona has an easy approach and is very sheltered.

The bridge across the entrance to Darse Vecchia opens for 5 minutes each hour at H+ 30 (Mon - Sat), H+15 and H+45 (Sun and Hols) and midnight to 6 am, it is left open.

This town is rather industrialised, and its port has commercial docks, but it does have some interesting buildings in its historic centre.
