Traveling in Finale Ligure

Located on the rugged coastline of the Italian Riviera, Finale Ligure is a commune of three traditional towns that have grown into one. The town as a whole is known for its white sand beaches and views as well as a system of charming stone paved streets and historic town centers. Some of the best sights include old forts and castles and a number of churches, some dating back to medieval times. There is also a number of rock climbing routes in the surrounding hills, for those seeking outdoor adventure.
Neighborhoods & Around
While Finale Ligure is united as a single town at present day, it once existed at three separate towns and the distinction can still be noticed in varying ways. Finalmarina is the seaside part of the town, highly frequented by tourists. It provides easy access to the beach as well as a boardwalk lined with palm trees and a lively commercial district for shopping and dining. Finalpia is the traditional center of town, having developed around the church of Santa Maria Pia in medieval times. And finally there is Finalborgo, the third borough located further inland surrounded by a wall from the 15th century at the confluence of the Porra and Aquila rivers. Each borough has its own town center and is surrounded by a tangle of picturesque streets and old world architecture.
