Lido di Ostia
The beach of Rome

HERE’S WHAT
YOU NEED TO KNOW...

  • The best way to get to Ostia is by train (trenino) on the Roma–Lido railway. The journey lasts 30 minutes and a single ticket is EUR 1.50. Any tickets for travel in the city centre (including day, week and month passes) are valid all the way to Ostia. The trains leave every 15 or 20 minutes and run until 11.30 p.m. You can get on at Piramide/Ostiense, Basilica San Paolo or EUR Magliana (all also on the Metro B Line) and off at Lido Centro, Stella Polare or Castel Fusano.
  • Some beaches are free to visit (spiaggia libera) and you have to pay to use others. And some beaches are free, but some charges do still apply (spiaggia libera attrezzata). Here, you can hire parasols and sunbeds – but you don’t have to.
  • You’ll pay around EUR 6.00 to EUR 10.00 to hire sunbeds and parasols for a day.
  • Paid beaches are supervised by lifeguards.
  • Whichever beach you’re on, keep a close eye on your belongings and don’t leave them unattended.
  • You can also take the bus (COTRAL) from Ostia to Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO). It departs from Lido Centro and a ticket for the 20-minute journey costs EUR 1.30.
  • During the winter, Ostia can seem really empty and deserted because many of the shops and restaurants are only open between March and October.
