While you're there, enjoy an eclectic mix of cosy cafes, bars, and independent gift shops. Don't forget to treat yourself to one of the famous ice creams from Visocchis Cafe- perfect for any day out!There's also an eclectic mix of cosy cafes, bars and independent gift shops to visit while you're there. It's the perfect location to get out of the city, enjoy some fresh air and perhaps treat yourself to one of the famous ice creams from Visocchis Cafe.

Free return bus tickets will be given out at your meeting point, the main entrance to the Tower Building, before the trip starts.

Please remember that it can be cooler by the sea than it is in the city centre so, dress according to the weather and wear warm clothes and suitable shoes.
