Sea of Tuscany - Versilia

This long stretch of sand called Versilia offers a wealth of ideas, temptations and inspiration. A trail of towns hallowed by decades of legendary guests. All these places have lots in common: ever green countryside, cool even under the fierce August sun, the seaside with shallow sea to suit all ages, the colourful bathing areas, bars and meeting places that make the news now as they did in the past.
But Versilia is also full of individual touches

Forte dei Marmi has a more fashionable outlook.
There are so many stories to tell about this beach, which also represents a way of life. Life here means high society and shopping, relaxation and a stroll in the centre, sunbathing on the beach and diving into the nightlife.

Viareggio is famous, and quite another kettle of fish. Viareggio is its carnival which has become an international attraction, strolling, looking in the shop windows, the liberty-style buildings, the elegant cafés, the welcome of the townsfolk, waiting year after year for the start of the summer and the emotion to be here again.

Marina di Pietrasanta

In Pietrasanta you breathe an air of culture and intellect - sculptors and their pupils chat in the cafés and there are works of art scattered in all corners.

With the white marble of all this art still fresh in your mind you will arrive at Camaiore, wedged between the cool, green hills, or at Torre del Lago with its memories of Puccini.

Versilia's Coast

There are so many different types of beauty. It is a world in its own, with its own pace of life and unchangeable habits, where you have the pleasure of meeting old friends again, while at the same time making new ones. There is always the expectation that the next year will be the same and yet in some way different. All this is the charm of Versilia.
