The Friuli Venezia Giulia seaside has a charm all of its own, an atmosphere that can be found nowhere else.
The Upper Adriatic is where East and West winds meet, where the sea pushes in towards the heart of Europe and where, Latin, Germanic and Slavic civilisations have left their marks around this doorway to the Mediterranean.

Sun, sea, relax and…fun!

The long golden sandy beaches of picturesque Grado and lively Lignano are just a few kilometres apart. The sea here is calm and clean and gets deep gradually, so that children can play in complete safety.

Relaxation and fun blend harmoniously in these ideal family holiday spots, surrounded by Grado Lagoon and Marano Lagoon, where time seems to stand still.

A host of facilities, for passing your holiday exactly the way you want to
There are lots of facilities on the lovely Friuli Venezia Giulia beaches:
- beach entertainment and courses for children and adults
- beach "wind villages" and aquasports
- volleyball, basketball and five-a-side football facilities
- mothers' rooms and baby sitting services
- sailing and swimming courses
- beach umbrellas, deckchairs, bars and relaxation areas
- Spa of Grado and Spa of Lignano

The other sea - little bays amidst white rocks, a stone's throw from Trieste
Just a bit further east there is a white cliff coast, stretching from Duino to Trieste, full of little bays amongst the rocks that are reachable either by boat or by a network of beautiful paths, such as the famous Rilke path, winding down through the scented Mediterranean vegetation with wonderful views of the blue sea. There is also the Barcola Riviera and the historic Trieste "bagni" (beach facilities), where you can have a swim just a stone's throw from this splendid Mitteleuropean city.

Flavours of the sea 
The centuries-old fishing tradition is a central feature of life in Grado, Trieste and Marano (near Lignano), providing excellent fresh fish for the delicious seafood dishes in the local restaurants. You can taste typical dish such as "Boreto alla Graisana" and asparagus raised in Grado, but above all don't miss the taste of the row fish of Marano Lagunare freshly caught.
