With more than 7,500 km of coastline, Italy has seafront promenades that are far more than simple walks beside the sea. For a sunset stroll or an evening wander, here is a selection of the most scenic seafront promenades in Italy, spanning the country from north to south, along with the features that set each one apart. Some, including Bari and Caorle, still tend to sit outside the usual tourist radar.
Seafront promenade of Bari
Bari’s seafront promenade stretches for around 15 km, placing it among the longest in Europe. The walk begins in the San Cataldo district and reaches Torre a Mare, passing through the heart of Puglia’s regional capital.
