Along Barcola’s sun-dappled promenade, visitors spending New Year’s eve by the Adriatic shared their thoughts on a holiday far from home. On December 31st, the gentle rhythm of the waves provided a tranquil backdrop as families strolled and couples lingered on benches.
“It’s magical,” said Hannah, visiting from New York. “New Year’s by the sea feels like a gift.”
For others, the simplicity of the setting was the appeal. “No snow, no stress—just this view,” remarked Gabriel, a tourist from Chicago.
