Experiences
Set on the coast in the Northern Tuscany Maremma, right at the heart of the Sun Gulf between Piombino and Punta Ala and facing the islands of the Tuscan Archipelago, Follonica has been a popular tourist and sea resort since the early Sixties.
Lovely pinewoods, a luxuriant Mediterranean bush, long, sandy beaches, romantic coves and crystal-blue waters are the perfect mix for special holidays. Follonica is somehow secluded, almost hidden away by the beauty of the landscape of Maremma, gently sloping towards the sea. The coastline is low and clean, an irresistible attraction for anybody. Every year the European Blue Flag vouches for the quality of waters and the cleanliness of this stretch of Tuscany coast
The golden sands of Cala Violina to the South, Torre Mozza and Carbonifera to the North, with the Sterpaia Coast Park, a pleasant oasis of dunes and shady pinewoods mirrored in one of the loveliest seas stretches in the Region, are only a few minutes' drive away.
The islands of the Tuscany Archipelago and Isle of Elba are within easy reach. You can discover the stunning beauty of Pianosa, Giglio and Capraia on a sailing excursion or mini-cruise departing daily from Piombino or Castiglione della Pescaia.
In Follonica nearby area you can also visit the archaeological sites of Gavorrano, the seat of a mining park, and the Etruscan-Roman necropolises and settings of Vetulonia Roselle and Populonia.
Gourmet visitors longing for the flavours of typical Tuscany produce (wines, olive oil and scores of well-known specialities) will enjoy a tour along the Monteregio Wine Trail, inside the Metallifere Hills district in the Upper Tuscany Maremma. Grosseto, the Maremma Nature Park and the well-known resort of Castiglione della Pescaia are less than half an hour's drive away.
You can go on sailing and motor boat mini-crouses, golfing, go for walks, treccking, hiking, horseback riding or cycling immersed in unspoilt nature rich in history.
