Miramare di Rimini, more commonly known simply as Miramare, is the southernmost suburb and frazione of the city of Rimini, Italy. Situated on the Adriatic coast, the seaside resort lies 5 km (3.1 mi) southeast of Rimini's city centre and borders the municipality of Riccione.
Located on the Via Flaminia, now the SS16 state road, Miramare developed as a tourist destination from the early 20th century. As well as the beaches on its coastline, the suburb's recreational facilities include Fiabilandia and Altromondo Studios, among Italy's earliest amusement parks and nightclubs respectively.
The suburb is served by a minor station on the Bologna–Ancona railway, and includes Federico Fellini International Airport, the principal airport for the province of Rimini and the Republic of San Marino.
