Sassonia is a pebble beach in the municipality of Fano, in the province of Pesaro e Urbino (Marche), on the Adriatic Sea.
Facing northeast (34°), it is sheltered with the Libeccio (SW) or Ostro (S); with the Gregale (NE) or Tramontane (N), which comes from the sea, it gets rougher.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
In the latest European EEA classification (2025 season) the bathing water is rated excellent.
