The Adriatic's "Green Pearl" turned holidays into an applied art: Viale Ceccarini is the promenade-salon where the aperitivo is an institution, the equipped beaches raise the service bar every year, and the parks — Aquafan above all, temple of waterslides since the Eighties — draw generations of families and teenagers.
The spa and the redesigned seafront add wellness to the formula. In summer Riccione is an ecosystem of rituals: dawn on the beach, piadina, hillside clubbing. Behind the fashionable front, family-run hospitality remains the Riviera's true technology.
