The 2025 edition of the Saracen Mussels Festival, the 38th, was held on July 12th in Borgomaro. The 'U Castellu' Association served mussels prepared according to the characteristic 'alla Saracena' recipe at the grand outdoor dinner, set up on long wooden tables in the village. The evening, accompanied by local wine and dancing, confirmed the success of a long-standing festival, capable of bringing the flavour of the sea to the hinterland of the Maro Valley, in the province of Imperia.
