East of the Ligurian Riviera, Santa Margherita sits in an entrancing, protected cove in the Tigullio Gulf. Santa Margherita Ligure attracts an international clientele in every season. Drawn to the rugged beauty and mesmerizing sea, guests can enjoy a host of activities to engage in: field trips inside the Natural Park, boating along the coastal inlets, scuba diving in the Marine Reserve, pilgrimages to historical churches and residences, and shopping in prestigious boutiques and quaint shops.
Santa Margherita Ligure is an ancient Roman fishing village — the vestiges of which can still be seen today. Over the years, it has evolved into a place of international acclaim which has become the vacation destination of the glitterati, royal families, captains of industry and political figures. The villas and grand hotels never disappoint those who enjoy being surrounded by beauty and culture in the exclusive comforts of luxury accommodations.
And, for those who value art and the preservation of artistic beauty, Santa Margherita Ligure is home to baroque churches, Villa Durazzo (with its splendid park over the ocean) and the enchanting and historically rich Cervara Abbey.
