It may be used for both activitiesand/or B & B accomodation, and adapts very well for sharing by multiple families who want to stay close to each other but in a separate solution.
Formia sprawls along the coast, between the sea and a range of barren hills climbing inland. But the town centre is relatively compact. Although this is the sort of place where almost everyone seems to drive a car, the pavements of Formia’s main shopping street, Via Vitruvio, are busy with pedestrians out shopping or enjoying a passeggiata. The railway station is a few streets inland, uphill from Via Vitruvio, and the port is about 15 minutes walk from the station, also close to Via Vitruvio, so if you stay centrally, Formia is manageable on foot.
Nowadays Formia is the commercial and shopping hub for the surrounding area, and the principal departure point for the Pontine islands, with year-round ferry services to Ponza and Ventotene. It’s not a typical tourist destination, but a contented and traditional Italian provincial town. However, Formia’s location between Rome and Naples and its convenient transport connections make it a practical location to break a journey, especially if you are catching a ferry. And the town’s historic sights and archaeological museum make it worthy of an overnight stay or at least a few hours sightseeing. With beaches and easy access to other interesting destinations such as picturesque Gaeta, some travellers may consider a longer stay.
