When you think of Sanremo, the first things that come to mind might be flowers, the famous music festival, and its slightly vintage charm. But this seaside town on the Ligurian Riviera is much more than that: it’s a place where life feels good. Really good. And if you’re considering learning Italian in a relaxed but vibrant setting, Sanremo might be just what you’re looking for.

A city on a human scale

Sanremo is the kind of place where you can walk everywhere. From the beach to the old town, everything is just a short stroll or bike ride away. There’s always time for a coffee in the square or a visit to the weekly market. Even though it’s a tourist destination, it has managed to keep its authentic soul.

The climate? Simply dreamy

Winters here are brief and mild—you can often have lunch outdoors as early as February. The mild weather all year round is one of the reasons why many people choose to stay here for a while. Sunshine and the sea make everything easier… even studying.

International vibe with a true Italian heart

Sanremo is open and welcoming. You’ll meet people from all over the world, but the city has stayed true to its Italian roots. This makes it a perfect environment to learn the language: you’re immersed in the culture while feeling supported and connected.

Culture, nature and a touch of glamour

There’s always something happening—concerts, art exhibitions, cultural events—or you can simply walk or bike along Europe’s longest coastal cycle path. Between the gardens, historic villas, local markets and postcard sunsets, Sanremo never gets boring.

In short? If you’re looking for a place to learn Italian—or just live a new kind of experience—Sanremo will surprise you. It’s not just a place to visit. It’s a place to live. And once you’re here, you might not want to leave.
