Fano is one of the most well-rounded beach destinations in the Marche region. Not only for its beaches—sandy, wide, and well-equipped—but also for the variety of coastline it offers within a few kilometers. From Lido di Fano to Senigallia in the south and Pesaro in the north, visitors to this area have access to one of the most beautiful stretches of the Adriatic coast in Italy. In this guide, you’ll find the most beautiful beaches near Fano, with everything you need to choose the right one for every day.
Loft Verdemare is located just 6 km from the sea—the perfect base for exploring the entire coastline in complete comfort.
The beaches of Fano
The coastline of Fano stretches for about 13 km, with both public and private beaches alternating along the entire waterfront. Each area has its own unique character.
Saxony Beach
Sassonia Beach is the heart of the Fano coastline. Wide, sandy, and well-equipped, it is the stretch most frequented by tourists and the hub for summer events—it was here that Brunori Sas’s dawn concert for the Sopravènto Festival 2026 took place. Beach clubs, bars, restaurants along the boardwalk, and a large public area. Ideal for those seeking amenities and beach life.
Lido di Fano
Lido is the northernmost part of the Fano coastline; it’s quieter and less crowded than Sassonia. It features wider beaches, well-maintained beach clubs, and a pleasant seaside promenade that’s enjoyable even in the evening. This is where “Un Mare di Aquiloni, ” the annual kite festival held in early May, takes place. It’s perfect for families with children.
Towers and Ponte Sasso
Heading south from the center of Fano, you’ll find the hamlets of Torrette and Ponte Sasso, with beaches that are less developed but more rugged. Fewer crowds, fewer umbrellas, more space. Ideal for those looking for a quieter spot without venturing too far.
The beaches north of Fano
Pesaro — 20 km from Fano
Pesaro is the major seaside city north of Fano, the provincial capital and a well-established tourist destination. Pesaro’s beaches are wide, featuring high-quality beach establishments and a fully equipped boardwalk. The advantage? The city also offers museums, cultural events (Pesaro was the Italian Capital of Culture in 2024), and a lively nightlife. It takes about 25 minutes to get there from Loft Verdemare.
Marotta — 15 km from Fano
Marotta is one of the most popular seaside resorts in the province of Pesaro-Urbino. It features wide beaches, fine sand, crystal-clear water, and a pine forest that provides natural shade right along the coast. It’s less bustling than the city of Fano, with a more intimate and family-friendly atmosphere. It’s perfect for those looking for a quieter day out.
The beaches south of Fano
Senigallia — 30 km from Fano
Senigallia is famous throughout Italy for its “velvet beach” —the fine, light-colored sand that has made this small town in the Marche region famous. Senigallia’s waterfront is bustling, with elegant beach clubs, seafood restaurants, and a lively summer nightlife. In July, it hosts the Summer Jamboree, the big 1950s rock ’n’ roll festival. It takes about 35 minutes to get there from the loft.
Mondolfo Marotta — 18 km from Fano
Mondolfo Marotta is a small seaside town with an authentic, laid-back atmosphere and few tourists. The beaches are less crowded, beach clubs are more affordable, and the atmosphere is peaceful. It’s ideal for a day at the beach without the August crowds.
Public beaches or private beach clubs: which to choose
The Fano coastline offers both options. There are plenty of public beaches —especially in the Torrette area and the less central parts of Sassonia and Lido—and they do not require reservations. Beach clubs offer lounge chairs, umbrellas, showers, bars, and restaurants right on the beach, with prices ranging from €15 to €30 per person per day, depending on the location.
For guests staying at Loft Verdemare, the advantage is having private parking right at the door: you can head out in the morning, choose which beach to visit, park with ease, and return to the loft whenever you like.
The Marche Coast: Water Quality
The sea off Fano and the surrounding area is consistently rated as excellent in the ARPA Marche surveys on bathing water quality. The Adriatic Sea is shallow in this area, so it warms up quickly—the water is already pleasant by the end of May, and in July and August it reaches 26–28°C.
How to get to the beaches from Loft Verdemare
It takes just 8–12 minutes by car to get from the loft to Fano’s main beaches. The private parking included with your stay lets you get around freely every day, choosing a beach based on your mood—without having to rely on buses or taxis.
