"Terracina - Beachside small town" Terracina by prasadp77

Terracina Travel Guide: 22 reviews and 30 photos

Terracina is small town, 2 hours on train from Rome.
When I first decided to visit this place, I had hard time to find travel route so putting that info here.

If you are in Rome, you can take Napoli bound train, hop off at Monte San Biaggio. To almost every train, there is connected bus to Terracina. (You can very well get this info, if you are in Rome but if you are planning from outside, this should be helpful)
Alternatively, there is bus service available as well from Rome but train is lot more comfortable, quick and frequent.

As far this town is concerned, I did not find anything special apart from pretty good beach for sun bath lovers. As far as my guessing goes, whoever goes there, goes for beach, otherwise nothing special about this small town.

There is one old castle like thing is there at the top of mountain just off the town, Its worth visiting that place if you happened to visit Terracina but it is not worth visiting this place for that castle.

IUsual in most restaurants to sell fish by weight (etto =100gm) this is the price that shows on the menu. Be clear on the size of the fish you want or you end up with a large bill. English is not spoken around here. Part of the fun

Yep, you get used to bargaining for everything.......the sellers enjoy that even if it can be a bit nerve wracking for the the buyer. Helpful tips here.........I just loved the old rocks on top of the hill. Thank you.
