Borghetto Santo Spirito borders the following municipalities: Boissano, Ceriale, Loano, and Toirano.
The town is noted, in the general context of the Riviera, as an example of urban explosion, with tall apartment buildings of heavy visual impact built in the 1960s and 1970s, in contrast with the "softer" approach in architecture and urban planning followed by most nearby Comuni. It is crossed by the Varatella.
