Recommendations for Civitavecchia

[ladybug97]

On this trip we are planning on going onto Civitavecchia when we arrive into Rome. My question is what do you recommend to do there? I think I read somewhere that they are beaches nearby? Just wanting to see other's opinion's.

I'm assuming you are boarding the ship that day. Is that correct?

 

You have a few options;

 

Yes, you could go to a local beach but not sure if that is practical if you are boarding that day.

 

You can visit the town itself. There are a variety of shops and other places to visit.

 

At the same time, you can visit some of the historical sites in this town.

 

This includes;

 

Forte Michelangelo (Michelangelo's Fort)

 

The Rocca (Castle)

 

The cathedral of San Francesco d'Assisi

 

About 30 minutes away is a former Etruscan Village.

 

Again, not sure if you are boarding that day.

We just wandered around the shops. But we arrived the day before and stayed at Hotel Traiano - highly recommend.

 

So, I'm not sure what you would do with your luggage.
