Beach Holidays in Italy: Numana
This sea resort town is perfect for a romantic getaway or relaxing beach holidays in Italy.
Further south from Sirolo is Numana, a picturesque village on Monte Conero coast. The history of this little town goes back to the 8th century BC. Numana was a base and a port for the Greeks, the Picenes and the Romans. An earthquake destroyed the old city and in time Numana became a quiet fishing village. It is now a sea resort town and offers and outstanding Italy beaches. The small tourist port is still alive and active hosting pleasure crafts.
La SpiaggiolaLa Spiaggiola (small beach) is right under the village and can be reached from the main square or from the tourist port. It’s tiny, sheltered and carefully tended by the owners of the many small hotels that overlook the bay.
Numana Beach Just after the port starts the beach of Numana that extends to the south for miles, it blends into Marcelli beach and continues to Porto Recanati. Along the shore is a myriad of restaurants; beach facilities offering umbrellas and beds, alternate with stretches of public beach where you can lounge for free.
