Scossicci beach, within Porto Recanati (the province of Macerata, Marche), is a pebble beach on the Adriatic Sea.
“Scossicci beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
The beach faces east (68°). It is most sheltered when the Ponente (W) or Libeccio (SW) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Levante (E) or Gregale (NE) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
