Looking for an Italian town on a hill, any ideas?

Hi all, this is a bit of a long shot, but a few years back I spent some time in Italy, I stayed in near Venice. One day I took a trip to Aquilea (think thats how its spelt) and on the way back we stopped off in a town that was sprawled over a hill, it had lots of winding streets that led to the top of the hill where there was a church and at the bottom is the coast with a marina. It was a nice town but i cant think for the life of me what it was called. Does anyone have any ideas? All I know is it was somewhere in the adriatic area.

Hi Skiff!

Well, it's not easy to answer your question... maybe it was Trieste, and the church was San Giusto, (which is on the top of a hill).
Check these out:

Is it what you were looking for? Bye!

There are tens of thousands of hill towns in Italy. Having a marina narrows it down a bit, but there are still hundreds. Try Google Earth (do I get a violation notice for mentioning the name?) and run along the coast to see if you can spot any likely candidates.

Hey
I've recently visited Venice and its sorroundings.
Maybe you are talkin' bout Miramare castle around Trieste...uhm...I'll think bout and I'll write some names...

Hope I helped a little bit

Do you mean Aquilea or L'Aquila?

If you went to l'Aquila that would bring you down the adriatic if you took that route. Although both seem quite far for day trips. Are you sure you have the right name?
As someone else says try google earth, put in L'Aquila and have a look along the coast to see if you recognise any of the names. Although as someone else said the adriatic coast line is full of small towns on hills.
