Please read my reviews on Trip Advisor, and you will see why my guests regularly return! April and May are beautiful, with many days in the 70's ( low 20's) and the flowers and plants are blooming. June is my favourite month with warm sea and deserted beaches. Then comes the high heat and humidity in the summer months of July and August, which is a great time to visit for the beaches and the sea, where the sea temperature rises to 80 degrees (26) and the activities that the town arrange for the visiting Romans, such as jazz in the park, rock bands in the piazza, carnival, local pageant, and wine tastings etc, most of which are free to attend. The town is very lively at this time of year. September is quiet when all the Romans have left, but the summer is by no means over, and the beaches are once again deserted and quiet, but with high temperatures and perfect for a peaceful beach holiday, we also have our patron saint festa the last weekend in September with concerts, bands and fireworks. October is still summer here, and you can still expect weather similar to that in May if not warmer. November is relatively quiet, but December is a beautiful time to visit, when near Christmas, the town is bedecked with lights, Christmas trees and baubles Tourist License / Licencia de turismo N °: IT069099C2NS6AY6GN,069099CVP0049
