Guide of Montesilvano

Geography

Montesilvano lies on the Adriatic Coast of Italy, 200 km East of Italy’s capital Rome. The Province of Pescara in the Abruzzo region surrounds Montesilvano, lining it with a rugged landscape comprising hills and mountains. Montesilvano has a population of approximately 50,000 residents, and remains pretty underrated among tourists who may be unaware of everything the town has to offer.

Climate in Montesilvano

Italy’s climate is much like the average Mediterranean climate- long, hot summers and short, mild winters. The best time to visit is around May-September, when the temperature reaches around 31°C (87°F).

However, summer in Italy is peak tourist season, which means large crowds and potentially higher prices. If you want to avoid this, try visiting during the spring or autumn months when the weather is still warm enough to feel like a holiday, but the atmosphere will be more relaxed and laid-back.

Culture

The culture in Montesilvano and much of the Pescara region is based around the beachfront lifestyle. Montesilvano is known for its bustling beachfront promenade, pool and beach clubs and its numerous resort-style hotels and restaurants. When Montesilvano’s population, whether tourists or locals, aren’t contributing to its vibrant nightlife, they are hiking up the surrounding hills and mountain trails or taking in the beautiful architectural sights.
