Italian families will be spending more for their days at the seaside this summer, said a report released on Wednesday by consumer group Federconsumatori.
A day at the beach will cost a family of two adults and two children 79 euros, approximately 4% more compared to last year.
Travel to the beach will also reflect the economic crisis, with gas prices up 19% since 2011.
The consumer watch-dog also noted that 66% of Italians will give up traditional, extended summer vacations and opt for city activities during the week and seaside outings at the weekends.
