Hotels Conero Peninsula
The beautiful cliff-edged Conero Peninsula is the only natural feature to disturb the almost unbroken line of beaches along the Adriatic Coast. Situated south of Ancona, it nestles on the slopes of the homonymous Mount Conero. It is a semi-wild area known for a collection of pebbly beaches and sheer cliffs, such as the ones of Portonovo and Sirolo, and for the large sandy beaches of Numana and Marcelli.
The beaches of Portonovo, such as the famous Beach of the Sail, which is named after the impressive sail-shaped rock dominating it, or the Beach of Mezzavalle are ideal places to enjoy crisytal-clear waters, go underwater fishing, dive and listen to the sound of the waves and the twittering of the numerous birds which nest here.
The lovers of open-air holidays will have the possibility to enjoy unspoiled beaches which are just only accessible through rough paths crossing the Park of Mount Conero, intimate bays where they can experience utmost privacy.
Sirolo, one of the most famous resorts in the area and a real paradise for surfers who are attracted by the northwest wind blowing here, hosts the Beach of the Black Pebbles and the well-equipped Beach of San Michele. Its rocky coastline is dominated by impressive cliffs and surrounded by flower-swathed slopes and is easily accessible from the nearby Park of the Republic.
There are also beaches which are accessible by sea only. The hotels situated in the Conero Peninsula provide information about the possibility to hire boats to discover the nearby intimate bays. The unspoiled Beach of the two sisters, which is named after the two impressive twin rocks that rise above the water, can be reached by special boats sailing from the harbours of Numana and Sirolo. The wild Beach of the Gulls in Sirolo is a protected natural oasis to be reached by guided boat excursions only.
