The wonderful Le Marche landscape provides the visitor with the perfect backdrop for a variety of outdoor activities or simply for relaxing.

If you fancy a day on the beach, are into touring the area or visiting a place of pilgrimage, we have provided an overview of some of the sightseeing highlights available to you. However, this is by no means a definitive list. For fans, players and punters we have our sports page. Alternatively, if you fancy other activity in the local hills and mountains then we offer, walking and hiking holidays, and there are facilities for horse riders and cyclists.

For those of you looking for a bustling place to pick up fresh local produce or wanting to haggle for that bargain antique then don't miss our markets page. If you want to go upmarket, then our directory of designer outlets will help you source cut-price Italian chic.

Better still, if you have relaxed sufficiently during the day, you should be in fine fettle for a night out at a festa, or other outdoor event. These occur almost every night during the height of the summer and normally involve al-fresco eating, drinking and dancing, with themes ranging from Historical Pageants to heats of the Miss Italia competition.

Finally, if you can't bear to go home, or, fancy returning on a regular basis, then maybe you fancy house hunting; our real estate page details how we may be able to help you.
