Bordighera is perfect for a beach holiday. Along the promenade, the Lungomare, there are numerous beach bars where you can rent sunbeds and umbrellas. In Italian: "i bagni". Do you want to make your beach day complete? Most bagni also offer snacks or lunch and, of course, the aperitivo, a drink with small appetizers. If you'd rather not pay for a beach spot, public beaches are also available.

The region offers wonderful hiking trails, from scenic coastal paths to challenging treks through the hills. Whether you prefer a gentle stroll or a brisk hike, there is something for everyone.

The bike path from Ospedaletti to Imperia stretches some 30 km along the coast. This path, the Pista Ciclabile, built on the former train route, is mostly flat and therefore accessible to almost any cyclist.

Bicycles, including electric ones, can be rented in all the villages along the path.
