Discovering Marche Region

History, sea and hills. If you are looking for one of these you are in the right place, if you are looking for all, even better, because Fiorenzuola di Focara contains all of them.

Why is Fiorenzuola di Focara so unique?

Fiorenzuola is a small village under the province of Pesaro Urbino and is located in the wonderful park of Monte San Bartolo.

“Poi farà si ch’al vento di Focara non farà lor mestier voto né preco”

Dante Alighieri (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dante_Alighieri) had already described the peculiarity of this cute village in the XXVIII canto of Hell, a village that is overhanging the sea, so dangerous for the sailors who used to challenge against the strong winds. You will find the quote in the wonderful Roman portal of entrance to the village

To do: wandering the streets

The village is an intricate of history, narrow paths, houses, tourists and people who have known each other for a lifetime. If you wander  through the narrow streets of the village, you’ll realize that Fiorenzuola offers you wonderful views over the sea. Whenever I am in Fiorenzuola, I always fall in love with these beautiful landscapes as if it were the first time.

Fiorenzuola is so surprising that it not only offers spectacular views of the sea, but also gives you the opportunity to go close to it.

How to reach the sea

When you are at the entrance of the village, right in front of the main door, go along the road on your right in the direction of the “Piadiuola”. From here, go down the steps, walk along an asphalted road and after a series hairbin bends, you will be in the beautiful and wild beach of Fiorenzuola di Focara.

If you don’t want to go on foot, there is also a shuttle service that will take you from the town of Fiorenzuola to the sea.
The shuttle service is limited in the months of June, July and August just to facilitate anyone reaching the sea even on the hottest days.
