It is easy to spot this grand white building, with its three distinctive high, arched windows across the façade. In front of it is a pretty fountain, which you will find surrounded by colorful flowers during the warmer months. Take a minute to enjoy this lovely space. The fountain is called the Fontana del Nuotatore, the Swimmer’s Fountain. Note the many different figures that make up the fountain’s central sculpture, including a person in a swimming position, two intertwined fish and an array of other, smaller creatures. The fountain was donated to the town in 1958 by the Manicone family from Milan. It was intended as a tribute to the Manicones’ deceased son.
Climb the short set of stairs leading to the building’s entrance and step inside. Here you will find the town’s tourist information office, as well as the reception service of the local tourism department.

The Palazza del Turismo is just a short walk west from Riccione’s lovely waterfront. After you have collected all the information you need, enjoy a leisurely stroll along the beach.
