💡 Tips
- The cycling path along the coast is great for families; consider renting a bike to easily reach neighboring towns.
- Beachfront parking fills up quickly in July and August; arrive before 9 AM or park further inland.
- Take a short drive or walk up to the historic hilltop village of Altidona for a beautiful panoramic view of the Adriatic.
- Look out for small beachfront chalets offering the freshest catch of the day in a casual setting.
🍽 Food
This extremely thin, local egg pasta is a regional specialty, usually served with a rich meat ragù at traditional trattorias inland.
A flavorful Marche fish stew; try it at the classic seafood restaurants along the promenade.
Fried, meat-stuffed olives are the ultimate local street food, available at most beachfront kiosks and delis.
🛍 Shopping · 🧘 Quiet spots
The Marche region is renowned for shoemaking; look for small artisanal shops and outlet stores slightly inland.
Pick up a bottle of Rosso Piceno or Falerio from a local enoteca or directly from nearby vineyards.
The ancient village center gives peaceful cobblestone alleys and a quiet escape from the busy beaches.
The natural area where the river meets the sea is less crowded and great for a peaceful morning walk.
