Hiking
A beautiful walk along the San Benedetto del Tronto seafront, where you can reach the south pier and walk for a kilometer with the sea surrounding you.

The monument was erected in the 1990s by Mario Lupo. It depicts a seagull named Jonathan, the hero of Richard Bach's book "The Seagull". It is a story about living on your own terms and following your heart.

The Monument to Jonathan Seagull, located along the southern pier of San Benedetto del Tronto, is a work by sculptor Mario Lupo dedicated to the character created by Richard Bach.
The sculpture depicts a seagull in flight with outstretched wings, a symbol of freedom, personal growth, and inner exploration. Its panoramic position overlooking the sea reinforces its meaning, creating an atmosphere of serenity and contemplation.
The monument represents a message of hope and inspiration: it invites us to overcome our limitations, pursue our dreams, and "fly high" despite the difficulties.
