Particularly famous for its beaches, considered among the most beautiful in the region, Giulianova from its position also allows easy access to the main parks of the region. Giulianova Lido is known for being one of the Seven Sisters, i.e. seven splendid tourist resorts in the province of Teramo which are distinguished by the beauty of their beaches. The beach here is characterized by fine golden sand, while the sea, which has won the Blue Flag award several times for the quality of its waters, has a shallow and slowly degrading backdrop.
