The beaches in Pescara are packed but if you follow the coast towards Vasto you will find the coastline more rugged and less populated , if you travel further towards Pulia you will find the beaches much quieter ,I visited all these areas whilst on a months vacation and made my base in a lovely village called Loreto Aprutino which i can recommend

I was in Malta recently & there were a lot of Italians there, especially on a boat tour around of the island I went on.

We stopped off at the Blue Lagoon on the small island Comino, where the beach was more or less jam-backed.

In the UK many people go to the same seaside resort & sometimes stay at the same hotel year after year. This is getting a bit rarer, though many more people have a holiday cottage or caravan rather that stay at the type of guest house Bill Bryson detailed in Notes From A Small Island. My Gran had a caravan in north Norfolk & I spent a week there almost every year she had it.

i agree italian beaches are far from anyones idea of a paradise beach but it is pretty comfortable to not have to pack an umbrella or a beach chair to be comfortable at the beach.

Where italians go an vacation? I know the answer – Croatia. On ferragosto they come with ships, cars, aircrafts to dalmatia.

We like the italiens very much – friendly and happy.

I have asked my sister about these beaches in Italy, as she’s living in Florence, and she said she still prefer to take on a vacation on tropical beach resorts than to hang around those beaches. But I wouldn’t mind especially if I would be going there on a romantic vacation.

I have always wanted to go to Italy and walk on the beaches, and after watching this video I want to all the more.

Great Stuff.

I simply want to visit Italy. I am not a big beach person but I would love to see them.

I can see why they prefer to go to the beach, Italy is surrounded in sea and they have long lasting traditions with beach vacations.

Folks in Tokyo is more or less the same, you have to take a train or car for couple of hours to go to the beach and it is packed with people! Not much people can afford a house near beach though.

I actually love some of the pay beaches in Italy. It’s nice to have a place to change, store all the kids’ stuff, get an ice cream, play in the sand and the water and then spend some time in the shade of the umbrella.

My husband and I were talking recently about our upcoming vacation, and started reminiscing about our own childhood experiences. I grew up in the US, he grew up in Italy. We would take a few weeks camping or playing at the beach. He would spend a month at the beach then a month in the mountains! Then we started talking about priorities, socio-economic issue, and global politics…

Cheers!
