Access

Short walk |
From Pescara drive south along the coast. About 1 km south of Foro turn right onto Strada Lomera. From here find the way under the railway to the beach. About 650m further south turn right onto Contrada Arielli and immediately right onto the dirt road and under the railway. Here at the small river mouth you can park close to the beach. But more people around.

Nightlife
A great movida is in the near "Pescaravecchia". A lot of pubs, little typical restaurants, and so on, where you can have a dinner, take a cup of beer or a cocktail and meet a lot of interesting guys and girls, all the periods of the year, not only in the summer nights.
