Located on the Adriatic Coast, Giulianova is divided into Giulianova Lido, the beach front region buzzing with tourists, and Giulianova Alta, the old city perched up high that offers panoramic vistas of the coastline. Known for its beautiful sandy beaches, this city also prides itself on its vineyards and olive groves which produce some of Italy's finest wines and olive oil.

- Convertible: For those sun-soaked beach days, a convertible allows you to soak in the sun and the coastal views.
- SUV: If you’re planning to travel a lot outside of Giulianova, an SUV will give you a comfortable drive through the mountains.
