Costarainera is a village of 801 inhabitants, it is in an excellent geographic position, sitting half-way up a hill overlooking the coast at 240mt above sea level and about 12km from the chief town, Imperia.
Costarainiera enjoys a particularly healthy micro-climate thanks to Mount Saccarello , which offers shelter from the northerly winds ,Monte Faudo which shelters it from low-pressure areas, and the movements of the nearby Ligurian sea., in fact it is an ideal treatment zone.
Costarainera is divided between the hamlet in the hills and the modern area (Paorelli area) by the sea.In the Paorelli area now mainly residential and touristic , because of its climate it has seen a devolopment of viticuture and then floriculture. From the top of the area one can admire a seaview and higher up from the ancient watchtower , on a clear winter’s day,you can see Corsica, the mountains of Tuscany and Provence right up to Cap Camarat. .
