Porto Recanati (pronounced [ˈpɔrto rekaˈnaːti]) is a town in the province of Macerata in the Marche region of Central Italy. It was made an independent town on 15 January 1893, due to a decree issued by King Umberto I causing the coastal hamlets of the town to be separated from Recanati.
With a population of approximately 12,500 inhabitants, Porto Recanati is located near Mount Conero. The town's seaboard extends for about 2 km (1.2 mi) from the mouth of the Musone River to beyond the Potenza River. The central part of the town is formed by gravel beaches and steep, deep-bottom seas, unlike nearby towns Potenza Picena and Civitanova Marche.
