NOT MUCH HISTORY AND OLD BUILDINGS...MOST OF THE OLD TOWN WAS BOMBED AND DESTROYED DURING THE 2ND WORLD WAR
In a nutshell
SEA PEOPLE AND SEA TOWNS ARE ALWAYS SOMETHING SPECIAL...
CLillard Says: As you can see in the first picture (taken from plane), there are plenty of beach chairs along the Pescara coast They also have many restaurants there and nightclubs.
Applelyn Says: Lie flat on the beach without a tan. You can rent the umbrellas and enjoy the cool summer breeze :) They are planting palm trees for the tropical feel.

Caffe Venezia: l'aroma di Pescara
Paisleypaul Says: The cake and coffee cousin of the Gourmet Venezia at Viale Regina Margherita, 16 reviewed here, good night stop for some espresso and home baking The above mentioned home baking!
Ganatiero Ristorazione: Gourmet Venezia
Paisleypaul Says: Had to check my records for the name of the restaurant, I thought it was Gourmet Venezia (cf. less upmarket Caffe Venezia tip) but receipt says otherwise.Fabulous breads, we had bottled Leggerra mineral water and a local wine with a starter that was a piece of parma ham and...
Pizzeria Liceo: Quick snack - great when you can't face dinner!
Paisleypaul Says: Quick snacks of pizze slices and suppli with a soft drink and a beer to sit in totalled Eu12 Just enough for when you have overshot at lunch! Great little "farcita pizzett" and delicious croquette like suppli
Hai Cheng: Chinese opposite stazione centrale
Paisleypaul Says: This is a comfortable value for money unpretentious ristorante cinese atop the main shopping street. Also, it is just across Piazza del Rinascente from the public partof the beach. We had a quick and inexpensive lunch here in shorts and sandals twice, which were days we...
Buffalo Bill Steak Opera House: - At least not "Wild Bill"!
Paisleypaul Says: Functional but uninspired choice of steak, grilled chicken breasts, pork etc, served with chips and little else - as is the Italian way. you will order verdure or insalata separately. Would not in all honesty be in a huge hurry to return but if you are in this area, perhaps...
Spizzo Cafe: Qucik pizza slices panini and burgers
Paisleypaul Says: Panini, pizze slices, hamburgers, cold drinks at this counter service tavola caldo type place we twice had a quick lunch at.You will see a two tier history to my Pescara restaurant tips! Largely we would dress for dinner and eat more than one course at trattoria in the...
Birreria del Corzo: Imaginative ristorante pizzeria forno a legna
Paisleypaul Says: I sought this place out our first night back in 2011 after having recalled it fondly from 2003.There is a covered annexe onto the street and in door dining also.I asked for the zuppa di pesce I recalled being so wonderful - but now (or just ferragosoto peak season?) you have...
Thomas Cafe: Delicious Food and Friendly English Speaking Owner
CLillard Says: The food is all prepared by the wonderful chef. They also have thick juicy steak, which is not common in Italy.Opens daily at 6 pm.
L'osteria dell'Unione: Excellent restaurant!
Fra.da. Says: This restaurant/enoteca (=wine tasting) is located in the old part of town. The ambience is very cosy and typical Italian, with a wide choice of kinds of wine. The restaurant has many tables and can host many guests but it is spread into many different rooms. The host is...
Ristorante Flaiano: Excellent restaurant
Fra.da. Says: I had a very pleasant dinner at Ristorante Flaiano, which is located in the old part of the town.The host is from Apulia (south of Italy), but all the dishes served are from Abruzzo.The ambience is very cosy, with many pictures of Italian movies of the 60's.The restaurant...
Applelyn Says: I like the interior design. It had wooden finishing that brought out the natural feel. Their drinks are good and not forgeting the gelato. Drinks are served with tapas-like snacks and plenty of nuts at the counter. I like the non-alcoholic cocktail. They quench your thirst...
Lecky Horn: Authentic Italian Food
Applelyn Says: The restaurant gives a cosy and homely feel and it also has a bar counter. The food is delicious especially the antipasta. For those who want real authentic italian food especially from Abruzzi region, you must come and try it. I like the anti pasta...especially the smoked...
Unfortunately most of the nightclubs along the beach close in early or mid September.
Marni Beach was open on a Sunday night in early September. Sundays they play R&B, Hip Hop, and reggaeton. To find a disco, we drove along the beach and listened for the loud music. This club was outdoors next to the beach.
I think they have a non-beach club location when it's not summer - Via delle Caserme, 44 - Pescara
The crowd was early 20s.

From TIBURTINA STATION, you can board the train to pescara or take the bus. Drop at Tiburtina Metro station, Right is train and Left is bus. Bus is only 15 EURO per trip and it is faster than train because train can't travel at high speed in the tunnel through the mountains. Taking the bus or train is still cheaper than car or taxi...and you can sleep on the bus. The bus ride is about 3hrs...

Produced in many Mediterranenan regions to a variety of recipes, in Abruzzo this Ratafia liqueur is a distinctive soured cherry version with red wine and is fermented in Sunlight
Only a few euros a bottle, easily available in Spar and the likes locally - Always seek out local produce wherever you are!

Yes, on the map, the airport area is very close to the city indeed! But... how to find your direction: that is the problem. No road signs while you leave the airoport, an ibcredible amount of roundabout that are supposed to make things easier, but they are not.
Unique Suggestions: Ask for detailed informtaion before you leave: once you've gone, it may be too late. I spent half an hour driving before reaching the city centre, but I had to negotiate with people going back home from a supermarket parking place.

Day trip to Tremiti Islands by Ferry
CLillard Says: The Tremiti islands are made up of the islands of San Nicola, San Domino, and Capraia, this last is uninhabited and covered in Mediterranean vegetation. On the island of Domino, the largest of the Tremiti islands, there are many caves to visit, including the Grotta del Bue...
Applelyn Says: This is a very good roadside snack. The skin is very crispy and the meat taste like Pekking Duck. When wrapped into a french loaf, it is fit for a meal. You can also try the sausage as a side. Just stop by any pushcart along any road with the sign. This snack originated from...

Pescara is the administrative capital of the Abruzzo region. Much of the city has been rebuilt since the Second World War and as a consequence most of the city centre is modern. It lacks the aesthetic...
We went to Pescara for a friend's wedding, actually the wedding reception was in Bominaco, a very small village up the mountains, between Rome and Pescara.
