Riccione

The lively ‘green pearl’ of the Adriatic Riviera, famous for its beaches, gardens and summer atmosphere.

Destination story

A place with its own rhythm.

Riccione is one of the best-known resorts on the Romagna Riviera, with wide sandy beaches, shady gardens and the elegant shopping street Viale Ceccarini. The town is lively day and night and sits close to Rimini, San Marino and the hill towns of Romagna.

For WOFA participants, Riccione offers a cheerful seaside festival atmosphere with plenty of space to relax between performances. Groups can enjoy the beach, theme parks and easy excursions along the Riviera.
