Introducing Riviera di Ponente
Curving west from Genoa to the French border, this stretch of the Ligurian coast has a more down-to-earth atmosphere than the Riviera di Levante. While it still harbours high-profile resorts such as lively San Remo, it also shelters some lesser-known gems, particularly along the stretch of coast from Noli to Finale Ligure.

The coast’s chalky cliffs draw free climbers from Italy and beyond; above the cliffs, the mountains hide a warren of hilltop villages.
