About Lungomare di Bari
Bari's magnificent 4-kilometre seafront promenade, shaded by trees and lined with Liberty-style villas, the setting for the city's famous morning walks and evening social life.
The Lungomare di Bari stretches for nearly four kilometres along the Adriatic coast, from the old town northwards to the Fiera del Levante exhibition grounds. It is one of the finest seafront promenades in southern Italy, shaded by centuries-old trees and lined on the landward side by Liberty-style villas and Art Nouveau buildings that testify to Bari's prosperity in the early twentieth century. The walk itself is a Barese institution: early every morning, hundreds of residents walk or jog along the seafront before work, regardless of season; in the evenings, the promenade fills with strollers enjoying the sea air. The sea here is a vivid turquoise in summer, and on clear days the view stretches far along the Pugliese coastline.
Did you know? The Barese tradition of the morning walk along the lungomare is so deeply ingrained that many residents walk the full 4-kilometre length every day before work, year-round regardless of weather.
