What to do and see in Riccione

Not just the sea, but a whole area to discover

Here the beach is just a small part of the holiday, because there are so many alternatives!

You can go from the sea to shopping, from an afternoon at amusement parks to an evening among bars and aperitifs, or take the car and find yourself in no time among hills, fortresses and villages.

The town centre, to experience on foot

Between Viale Dante and Viale Ceccarini much of the town's life is concentrated: shops and boutiques, bars, restaurants and venues for nightlife liven up every season. And then there's Piazzale Roma, the seafront and the harbour, perfect for a stroll after dinner too. The best part, for those staying at Hotel Villa Mare, is being able to reach the town centre streets directly on foot.

Just choose where to spend your next day!

They call it that for a reason. Between Riccione and the nearby towns you'll find some of the best-known amusement parks in Italy, each with a different way to entertain adults and children alike. There are Aquafan and Oltremare right in Riccione, Fiabilandia and Italia in Miniatura towards Rimini, the Acquario di Cattolica and, going as far as Ravenna, Mirabilandia.

Romagna, land of motors

Romagna is land of circuits, events and great champions

for those who love two wheels, it's one more opportunity to live out their passion even on holiday. In fact, just a few kilometres from here is the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, while a little further on Tavullia tells another important part of Italian motorcycling history.

Inland and villages

Unmistakable historic places, to pamper your eyes, but also your palate!

If you're staying here you can't miss the hinterland: Gradara, with its Rocca and the story of Paolo and Francesca; San Leo, spectacular on its cliff; San Marino, among towers and historic centre on Monte Titano; Santarcangelo di Romagna, lovely to wander through alleys, squares and workshops; and Montebello, a small village dominated by the castle made famous by the legend of Azzurrina.
