Rimini

Rimini on the beach: by day and by night. The great golden sand stretches melt with the intense turquoise of the sea. It starts at dawn with walks on the shore. It ends at night after a barefoot dinner on the sand. The philosophy is that everything is on the beach: yoga lessons, sandcastle, seminars of piadina, all kinds of sports. Everything is included in the daily cost of the sun umbrella and lounge. The rates are very competitive with respect to the rest of Italy and there is no entrance ticket to the beach.

The bathing establishments are two hundred and fifty, modern and constantly renewed, organized with animations for children and adults.

But there are also free beaches with toilets and assistance: Boscovich area, San Giuliano in front of the Darsena, Marebello: between the establishments 105 – 106 and 107 – 108, Miramare area: between 139 and 140; from 150 to Thalassotherapic; from the reserved area of Air Force to the border with Riccione, Torre Pedrera area to ​​Tolemaide street.

The sea water is low and the bottom sandy, so it is nice and safe swim especially for children. Only offshore, it can reach a modest depth of about 100 m, while going to south also reaches 1200 m.

The Riviera Romagnola is the area with the highest density of theme parks in Europe. All the parks are dedicated to families on holiday with children, but also for young people who want to have fun. Interestingly for people of all ages, the facilities are all within a radius of 50 kilometers. The types of parks are many: they are distinguished among theme parks, fairy-tale parks, water parks and much more.

The “Marina” is the summer heart of Rimini, which can be reached through avenue Principe Amedeo, which ends with the “Fountain of the Four Horses” and the Grand Hotel. For decades meeting point of national and international aristocracy, today is the most frequented setting by stars of entertainment and culture.

It is the hub of summer fun on the Adriatic Riviera, famous all over the world for the great availability of accommodation facilities and solutions suited to a differentiated tourism. Locals, nightclubs, hotels, restaurants, games rooms and shops for all kinds of shopping overlook Viale Vespucci. The warm welcome of inhabitants, the delicious cuisine of the area, the many events that the municipality organizes during the summer in the squares near the sea and the irresistible appeal of the most famous venues are just some of the features that attract each year in Marina Centro Millions of tourists of all ages and from every corner of the world.

Viale Vespucci is the promenade of fashion boutiques, locals and best restaurants, a diversified tourism area centered around bars and shopping for all styles. Right here is the historic Grand Hotel of Rimini, designed by architect Paolo Somazzi and was inaugurated on July 1, 1908 and in 1994 was declared national monument. Federico Fellini has immortalized this majestic building several times in his movies, and the Rimineses as affectionate tribute have decided to use the names of some of his films to define some streets just off Marina Centro.

In Rimini you live by day and by night, but here fun is cheerful and never transgressive. Since ever in this seaside resort are born new trends: street bars, happy hour, finger food, beach aperitifs, dinners on the beach, future sports like the next games or nordic walking on the sand. Fun follows all tastes and ages.

Rimini Movida lights every night in various points in the city, in the harbor area, in Marina Centro, where there are the trendy venues, on the seafront or on the beach. And then wine bar, pubs and restaurants in the historic center, in particular the area of vecchia Pescheria in Piazza Cavour, a meeting point throughout the year.

Acclaimed for the bond created between the tradition of crib and sand, the real symbol in the seaside tradition, sand “presepi” are very much appreciated in Rimini for the suggestion and care of the creations. They record every year a remarkable increase in the number of visitors, suggesting a fascinating journey between sand sculptures and works that reach up to 6 meters high to re-propagate the theme of the Nativity set in ancient Rimini scenes. The cribs are set up partially inside a covered and heated setting, illuminated and open even in the evening, and partially outside. The Nativity of Torre Pedrera is curated by the Sand Academy and proposes the Nativity at the center of a thematic landscape that changes every year. Over 200 characters intent on their daily work, which goes back to the tradition of the Neapolitan crib with contamination of Romagna culture. Instead, the Nativity scene at Marina Centro proposes a path that leads the spectator from the Annunciation to the Nativity to the Magi, set between glimpses of the ancient Ariminum. Marina Centro’s Nativity scene is located on the free beach in front of Piazzale Boscovich and is accompanied by animations, shows and gastronomic events.

Rimini is also the great cinema. It is the fantastic world of Federico Fellini and the place where he has asked for rest forever.

In his masterpieces, the Riminese past is constantly recurring: the Cavour and Tre Martiri squares that become those of Amarcord (“I remember”, in dialect), the Fulgor cinema in the Corso that lives in Roma and Amarcord, the beach with the cabins of the “Città delle Donne”, the Grand Hotel.
