(ANSA) - Rome, July 31 - Italy's seaside resorts have enjoyed their best start to the summer season, in terms of business in June and July, in a decade, Riccardo Borgo, the head of the Italian union of beach establishments (Sindacato Italiano Balneari), said on Friday. "We have registered positive signals on practically all of the Italian coast," said Borgo. "Today we can say that the first two months of the 2015 season have been the best in the last decade".
