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. .
