The East coast resorts

We hit the east coast at Riccione (near its better known neighbour Rimini) and had a couple of stops both here and at Cervia a little further north. This is 'lido' country and the fine sandy beaches are mostly operated by concessionaires who have established vast fields of brollies and loungers with bars, play areas and anything else they can think of to attract the punters from their neighbours. The going rate for a brolly and 2 loungers is about £10+ per day in the season.
