Appreciate lazy days of relaxing by the sea and drinking cocktails in the sun at this small town with pretty tree-covered streets, a golden beach, lively bars and magnificent food.

Step into the gorgeous coastal town of Alba Adriatica and find yourself drawn into its casual, fun-loving atmosphere. With one look at the pristine, sprawling beach, you will understand why the locals are in such good spirits. The calm, clear sea laps against the shore. On land, there are lounge chairs available to rent for relaxation on the soft sand. Dive into the warm water and then sit with a cool drink in hand at one of the bars overlooking the sea.

To see more of the town, explore the smooth cycle path that parallels the coast. Most of the path runs beneath palm trees, providing shade to make cycling a suitable activity at any time of day. Inquire at your hotel or tourist office if you need to rent bikes.

After your exercise, head back to the town centre for dinner. Find many of the best restaurants along the beachside Via Marconi. As you stroll along this road, you’ll be treated to shows by talented street performers. Eat succulent fresh fish or delicious pizza as the sun goes down. Check out the bars nearby that are open every night with live music and dancing.

Don’t miss the annual Alba Carnaval during the first half of August. Extravagant floats feature people in stunning costumes and masks. Festivities continue until late into the evening.

Alba Adriatica is in the Abruzzo region on the central eastern coast of Italy. It is approximately a 2-hour drive east from RomeOpens in a new window. Find a range of accommodation available, including hotels and villas.

Enjoy the stunning beaches and charming accommodation to suit all budgets at Alba Adriatica in Abruzzo.

"The property is close to the sea and you can easily go for a walk along the seafront at night. Poor information at check-in and various requests not attended or had to wait more than one day. Restaurant and room service badly organized"
