Spiaggia Urbani

Ah, the stunning ivory sands of this beach are truly a sight to behold, accompanied by the gentle pebbles that adorn the shoreline. The water is a welcoming embrace, luring you in with its gentle slope. However, be warned, if you're looking to soak up the sun's rays, you must rise with the roosters and make your way to the beach early. The cliff's imposing presence will cast a shadow over the beach by 4pm in October, leaving you feeling like you've missed out on some much-needed vitamin D.

This beach is an ideal destination for young families. The presence of a protected baby pool, shielded by towering rocks, adds to its charm. However, the only drawback I personally find is that it is a small beach with pebbles and stones. Nevertheless, the sea is usually calm and tranquil, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing day out.

If you have a fondness for rocky beaches, then this is the ideal spot for you. This beach is situated in a stunning location, surrounded by a white stone cliff. It's perfect for swimming, and there are free accessible beach areas available, while others are reserved for paying customers who can rent an umbrella and two loungers for the entire day for 20 Euros. You can also find a restaurant and public toilets on the beach, as well as kayak and canoe rentals if you're interested. However, during the high season, such as in July, the beach can get quite crowded, so keep that in mind if you prefer some privacy. Parking is limited, and if you're late, all the parking lots will be taken. Paid parking is available in Sirolo, and it's a 20 to 30-minute walk to the beach, including plenty of stairs. You can walk in flip flops, but it's recommended to drive the children and remaining adults, along with your belongings, to the last parking lot. Leave them there and drive back to Sirolo so that only one person has to make the walk. The same process applies to the return trip, where the driver picks up the car first and then picks up the family with the car down at the beach. Of course, if your children are older, you can walk both ways, but with outside temperatures of more than 30 degrees, it's no fun to climb the stairs back to the car.

The beach is fantastic with crystal clear water and pebbles instead of sand.

During peak season, the beach can get quite congested and by 3:30 PM, the sun is blocked by shade. However, the location is beautiful and the water is crystal clear. Monte Conero boasts some of the finest beaches around.
