Tuscan Coast

Whilst Tuscany is perhaps most famous for its rich rural landscape, Tuscany is also home to some of Italy’s most beautiful stretches of coastline. These stretch from the upmarket seaside town of Forte dei Marmi in the North to the Orbetello Lagoon in the South. Whilst the number of Blue Flag beaches can change year to year, usually around 20 of these have been awarded the sought after Blue Flag status. Much of Tuscany’s coastline offers superb opportunities for water sports including windsurfing and waterskiing. Opting for a stay in a Tuscany villa near the beach truly does give holidaymakers the best of both worlds – lazy days on the sand as well as terrific sightseeing inland.

These villas are all within easy reach of Tuscany’s beaches.
