About Pescara
Pescara is Abruzzo's largest city, a lively Adriatic resort with a long sandy beach, a river harbour and mountains rising behind the coast.
Pescara spreads along the Adriatic coast of Abruzzo, at the mouth of the river from which it takes its name. A broad beach of fine sand, lined with bathing lidos and a seafront promenade, runs the length of the city, and the Ponte del Mare, a sail-shaped cycle and footbridge, crosses the river mouth to the harbour. The poet Gabriele D'Annunzio was born here, and his birthplace is a museum.
