SEA
The coast from San Vincenzo to Follonica offers wide sandy beaches, rocky coves and crystal clear waters. Kilometers of free stretches of sand are complemented by well-equipped bathing establishments. To the west is the beautiful Gulf of Baratti, with calm sea in the days of Scirocco; the wilder east coast is sheltered from the Mistral.
The Rimigliano Natural Park’s wide sandy beach stretches for six kilometers along the coast between San Vincenzo and Piombino. It is characterized by a thick and fragrant Mediterranean scrub that grows in an exceptional variety of species, colors and shapes.
The Sterpaia Coastal Park, about 296 hectares of beach, dunes and dense vegetation, stretches between Piombino and Follonica. This Mediterranean scrub smells of rosemary, pine and herbs. Fine white sand slopes gently toward some of the clearest waters in the region.
TOWNS AND CITIES
