Absolutely great shopping area and location. De promenade and side streets are filled with shops, restaurants and cafes. There are designer shops as well as simple well known brands. Our guests at infraia.com love shopping here and walking along the coast.

Wide boulevard with nice shops and many restaurants and bars in the side streets. The street ends at La Fontana Nave di Cascella.

Nice walk from the bus station to the promenade, you can find different shops and we found them with Sale since we were there in August.

It connects Vittorio Emmanuele II with the beaches, so it's good either for getting to the beach, or for shopping, or just for taking a walk in the evening. It is pedestrian only, with shops and restaurants on both sides, especially if you go right/left on either Regina Elena or Regina Margherita streets; they both cross Umberto I. Lots of tourists, street performers and a few palazzos from the older times make it an attractive evening activity, since during daytime it's way too hot to venture off the beaches or the hotel.

Nice area to spend time: lots of shops, restaurants, bars, green area, gelateria (yummy!!). You can sit on a bench and look on everything that happen around you.

Observing it on a topographic map, Corso Umberto appears relatively eccentric with regarding Pescara as a whole. The geometric city center in fact coincides more or less with the axis of the river, and close to the river also the main public buildings (largely of the Fascist era) arise, first of all the Town Hall.
But the "substantial" centrality of this street comes from its origin: it was constituted as the backbone of the new urbanization favored by the advent of the Adriatic railway (1863). Corso Umberto in fact, although it has the most of buildings currently dating back to the twentieth century, was formed in the nineteenth century as an axis that connects the Pescara station to the beach and the sea. And its centrality is maintained until today.
Even the traveler who arrives for the first time in Pescara perceives this as the true center; for the large number and density of beautiful shops, and for its condition of pedestrian area, that Corso Umberto shares - in form of gridiron - with other streets, on the west and especially on the east side.
In the late autumn and winter evenings, after the shops' closure time, the area isn't so vibrant (there are still a good number of bars and restaurants). It's clear that on spring and summer evenings, thanks to the uncommon quality of Pescara - big city and at the same time seaside resort - there must be a lot more "buzz".

This street is full of shops, cafes and places where you can dine at lunch and dinner. A pleasant place for evening walks.

Si può parcheggiare sul lungomare Matteotti, o sul viale della Riviera, oltrepassata la Nave di Pietro Cascella. Altre zone dove poter parcheggiare, abbastanza vicino, sono l'area di risulta della stazione centrale, praticamente hai il corso a portata di mano, oppure lungo via regina Margherita o via Nicola Fabrizi. Da almeno 10 anni il corso Umberto I è interamente pedonale
