10 Things to do in Bordighera That You Shouldn't Miss

October 5, 2021 Rosalyn Ihle

Known as the City of Palms, scenic seaside Bordighera is the proud supplier of fronds to the Vatican every Palm Sunday. Just a few miles from the borders of both Monaco and France, floral Bordighera has been a favorite resort destination for British visitors since the 19th century, when Queen Victoria herself was a guest. The town has many lovely gardens (like Pallanca and Winter), an archaeological museum (the Bicknell) and a lovely old town, but most come for the beach and seafront promenade.

Bordighera Alta

Reviewed By Klynge - Frederiksberg, Denmark

Bordighera is one of the finest small towns at the seaside in Liguria. Just a few kilometers from the french border It is a Nice Place with the fine mix between new and old, now and before. Some fine hotels can be found at the seaside and a must is to get away from the Beach and get up to the oldest part of the town. Then you get back in time in the narrow paths between the old houses.

Chiesa di Sant'Ampelio

Reviewed By Beverley73 - Monte Castello di Vibio, Italy

This is a really lovely church dedicated to the Patron Saint of Bordighera with a rich history. Beautifully restored. The setting is gorgeous- high above the sea with fabulous views over the marina and out to sea - but easily accessible. In the 3 weeks we’ve been here we have visited 3 times - so pleased to find a quiet place of contemplation during Lent. This is a must see.
