Among Pescia Romana’s distinctive features are its wild beaches, church architecture and regional agriculture. Melons are among the area’s renowned agricultural products. Which aspect takes centre stage depends on your interests: the coast, local history or regional production each offer a different perspective on Pescia Romana.

Wild Beaches and Beach Activities

Pescia Romana has wild beaches. The Il Casalaccio beach resort offers beach games such as football and beach volleyball; pedal boats can also be hired there to explore the coast. This gives you two distinct aspects to consider when planning your trip: wild beaches as a landscape feature and specific activities at the beach resort. The availability of these activities may change. So check before your visit whether beach games and pedal boats will be available then. This will help you decide whether the scenery or particular beach activities matter more to you.

The History of the Borgos
