Yacht charter
Last updated on 8 April 2025
Pescara is a magnificent Italian city located on the Adriatic, at the mouth of the Aterno-Pescara river. It is a seaside resort and port dominated by the Abruzzo massif. The sailboat charter in Italy is particularly favorable there, thanks to a steady breeze that blows over the region.
A yacht charter in Pescara will offer the opportunity to visit numerous protected areas, including the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park, the Majella National Park, etc. On the program, you will observe birds, chamois and wolves. You will discover lakes, in this case Lake Garda, on the shores of which is the estate where the famous poet Gabriele D'Annunzio lived. The base in Pescara is not far from the Croatian coast, which can also be an opportunity to go on a cruise to Croatia.
To discover the city's places of interest, we recommend a stroll along Corso Umberto I Avenue to Primo Maggio Square, passing through Rinascita (Renaissance) Square, also known as Salotto Square.
On the cultural side, you can put together a sailing itinerary including the Vittoria Colonna Museum of Modern Art, the Paolo Barrasso Naturalistic and Archaeological Museum, and the Museum and Archives of Contemporary Artists of Abruzzo. Between visits, there's nothing like a picnic on the banks of the Aterno-Pescara river. As you travel through the region, you will find other places to recharge your batteries, such as the spa resort of Caramanico.
A culinary and cultural change of scenery in Pescara
A vacation in Pescara leaves no room for boredom. Strolling through its lively streets will lead you to charming restaurants and beautiful architecture that will inspire admiration. As you stroll through this little open-air museum, you will come across ancient religious buildings built in the 12th century, including the churches of the apostle Andrew and the Church of the Holy Spirits, which are among the oldest in the city. The Cathedral of Sant'Agata, the house of Gabriele d'Annunzio and the Governor's Palace are also not to be missed.
Lovers of Italian cuisine will be spoiled for choice among the many restaurants offering a wide range of seafood dishes. For a gastronomic change of scenery, try the specialties of Pescara, generally based on lamb, such as the famous arrosticini, or mutton, such as Pecora alla Callara. The Abruzzese table is also distinguished by the wide variety of sheep and goat cheeses, to name but a few: fresh mozzarella, caprino and fior di latte.
Activities for everyone
On land or at sea, there's something for everyone in Pescara. Hikers can choose from the many sailing itineraries leading to the source of the Pescara River. Diving enthusiasts will enjoy the lake and its resurfacing waters, while canoeing enthusiasts will tackle the Tirino River, which offers 30 km of cycle paths along its banks for mountain biking enthusiasts. Climbing enthusiasts will be busy around Roccamaiore, located in the Orta Valley.
Bathers and those who love to laze around will easily find a free spot on its beaches stretching for about twenty kilometers. Perfectly equipped sandy beaches for those who wish to veer off on a water-jet-powered motorized craft or a sailboard.
