An annual event in Imperia brings together classic sailing boats from around Europe for a stylish regata. Held in September, it features beautiful boats that they call "le regine del mare" -the queens of the sea; classic wooden vessels from another era. The regata combines sport with elegance, tradition and showmanship. It is something quite interesting to watch!

If you find yourself in Liguria for the Vele d'Epoca Imperia, check the website for the calendar of the events and watch the boats in competition, or walk along the marina to see them docked.
