I often visited the beach strip near the city of Porto San Giorgio throughout the year, and it has always been my favorite place. The beach with its yellow sand and calm sea is beautiful in both winter and summer. During the summer, the promenade along the beach is lively with numerous restaurants and cafes.  There is also a bicycle path where you can enjoy a long and pleasant ride. Don't miss the weekly market of Porto San Giorgio that takes place every Friday, offering a vibrant experience with its array of colors and delightful aromas.
