Sanremo's best sights for a dog are the outdoor ones: the medieval La Pigna old town climbing the hill in concentric lanes, the grand Liberty-style Casino to admire from outside, and the lively Porto Vecchio and Portosole marina. Interiors such as the Casino gaming rooms and the churches exclude pets, so plan those for when your dog can rest. Everything below is enjoyable on foot with a leashed dog.
The medieval heart of Sanremo, a maze of concentric alleys, arches and steps climbing the hillside above the modern town, named La Pigna (the pine cone) for its shape. It is a purely outdoor wander and one of the most atmospheric walks in the area with a dog.
💡 The lanes are steep and cobbled; go slowly, and a small or older dog may prefer a carrier for the climb
Sanremo's landmark Casino, built in 1905 in an ornate Liberty (Art Nouveau) style, dominates the terraces above the seafront. You cannot take a dog into the gaming rooms, but the grand facade and the palm-lined terraces around it are a fine outdoor stop on a walk.
💡 Admire it from the terraces and Corso degli Inglesi; take turns going inside while one person waits with the dog
The old fishing harbour, where the boats land the catch that feeds the Piazza Bresca kitchens each morning, sits beside the larger Portosole yacht marina. The flat quays and café terraces make a relaxed, level waterside stroll with a dog.
💡 Combine it with a meal in Piazza Bresca just behind; the whole area is flat and easy with a dog
