Senigallia

Our town has plenty of things to offer to those who choose it for their holiday; a very clean sea, the charming Velvet Beach, the view of the old town with its friendly people, Rocca Roveresca, Foro Annonario and the taste of our regional dishes. The city centre is near the beach; there are not only two of the best Italian restaurants in town, Cedroni’s and Uliassi’s, but there are also many other high quality diners. To spend some time in Senigallia means to smell the tradition, to feel at home, to take a stroll on the seaside promenade or to have a seafood dinner by the sea.
