Things To See/Do in Pescara:

The Italian seaside resort of Pescara has long been a favourite sun holiday destination with Italians and Europeans seeking a relaxing summer vacation.

It?s easy to see why Pescara is such a big hit with summer sun seekers. The resort offers a range of cultural attractions as well as long sandy beaches and a picturesque promenade. Above all, Pescara?s most attractive feature is that it manages to maintain the character and old-fashioned charm of a traditional Italian fishing village.

Pescaraa?s events calendar comes into its own over the summer months, with the resort hosting a number of festivals and events including the International Pescara Jazz Festival, The Stagione Estiva di Prosa theatre festival and the Flaiano cinema International Prize.

Pescaras rugged countryside provides plenty of scope for hire car touring. The pretty town of Chieti is just a 20-minute journey by hire car and boasts a range of attractions including an impressive gothic cathedral and the fascinating Nationale Archaeologico di Anchita.

Eating Out/Nightlife/Accommodation in Pescara:

Fish is definitely the dish of the day in Pescara. Local specialities include polpi in purgatorio, a dish of cuttlefish served in a garlic, tomato and pepper sauce. If money is no object and you can afford to dine in style check out Caf? Le Paillotte, meanwhile cheap vegetarian bites can be sampled at Osteria Miracoli.

Pescara has a laid back nightlife which centres on the bars and discos in and around the seafront. Most after-dark activity takes place at caf?s on the Piazza Rinascita, where locals while away the hours chatting over a glass of the local Montepulciano D?Abruzzo red wine.

Pescara is well established as a summer holiday destination and offers excellent choice in terms of accommodation. First class establishments such as Esplanade on piazza Primo Maggio will impress those looking to live it up in style, while thrifty travellers are guaranteed to find cheap lodgings at budget hotels such as the comfortable Adria on via Firenze and the centrally located Lido on Lido Re Matteoti.

Pescara is a great base from which to make car hire excursions to the quaint nearby towns and cities. Convenient car hire day trips include Chieti, a scenic hilltop town offering stunning sea views, as well as an impressive gothic cathedral and absorbing museum full of Bronze Age and Roman trinkets.

Pescara is no stranger to hosting a festival or two. Events worth pencilling into your diary include July?s International Pescara Jazz Festival and Flaiano Cinema International Prize. August?s Stagione Estiva di Prosa theatre festival also draws in the crowds.
