Fiumicino is a central-Italian town and comune in the province of Rome, in which the busy Leonardo Da Vinci International Airport is located which serves the national capital Rome. Fiumicino is a large fishing town on the Tyrrhenian Sea coast and has long been known for its great seafood restaurants. It also is a weekend getaway for the people of Rome, especially in the summer. There is a good beach but the sand is black due to the high iron content in it. The name means little river. The town of "Fiumicino" should not be confused with its namesake, Fiumicino, a small river near Rimini.
