Among nature; Near water
Overlooking the sea and crossed by the Foglia river, Pesaro is a seaside resort located between two coastal hills: Monte Ardizio to the east-southeast and Monte San Bartolo to the west-northwest, which gives its name to the Natural Park of Monte San Bartolo and offers seven kilometers of sandy beach between the equipped and free coast (the Ponente / Levante Sottomonte beaches have obtained the 2018 Blue Flag for over 6 km),
A centuries-old tradition of seaside hospitality is linked to the sea, which pays particular attention to families and children.
Since 2010 Pesaro has dedicated the White Midnight for children, the flagship event of summer tourism programming, to the little ones, and some laboratory activities of reading aloud on the city's beaches are also dedicated to children, organized by the Baia Flaminia Library.
The bathing offer includes thanks to the particular conformation of the territory, with the low and sandy coast narrow to the south and north with the San Bartolo and Ardizio hills that reach the sea, establishments easily accessible from the hotels and the historic center, and small bays surrounded by nature.
There are several cycle paths: the Bicipolitan is an itinerary reserved for bikers that connects different areas of the city. Special signs indicate the routes. There are lines of different colors, each of which leads in various directions.
The Pesaro-Fano cycle path runs along the entire coast in a southerly direction, up to Fosso Sejore; being at the beach level, it serves the bathing establishments that insist on the Levante beach and is very convenient for those who want to reach the beach by bicycle.
Le Marche is one of Italy’s best-kept secrets. Sandwiched between the Adriatic and its better-known neighbours Tuscany and Umbria, this quiet and sparsely-populated region has long slipped under the travel radar. Yet with a string of charming hilltop towns and a landscape ranging from snow-capped Apennine peaks to dreamy beaches and otherworldly caves, it’s the perfect place to experience Italy without the crowds. Outstanding with their geometrical shapes and imposing appearance, Italian castles are not only awe-inspiring but marvelous – a splendor that is best observed in person. Interestingly, no two castles seem alike and each has unique features that correlate with historical events, natural surroundings, and political changes over the centuries.
