To the beach
Swimming
The sea is approximately an hour and a half’s drive away, close enough for a wonderful day trip. You drive through the Tuscan landscape towards the coast, where it gradually changes: the air becomes saltier, the horizon wider. A day by the sea here feels like another world. There is plenty of choice, whether you opt for a lively seaside resort with beach clubs and restaurants, or a peaceful natural beach.
