The Best Beaches in Tuscany that you don't know about
Spanning over 300km, the coastline of Tuscany offers beautiful beaches, hidden coves, and nature reserves. The characteristics of these beaches vary greatly, with some stretching for kilometres, offering crystal-clear sea, soft golden sand, and others are small rocky coves hidden amongst forested hills. Complemented by picturesque countryside, and quaint wine towns, it’s no wonder Tuscany is such a hotspot for holidaymakers.
The best time to visit is late Spring (April to May) and early Autumn (September to October) as this is when the landscape is most beautiful, and the temperature is a pleasant 17-23°C (Spring) and 20-26°C (Autumn). The coast will be least crowded from November to March with temperatures dropping to 9-15°C. At the height of summer (June to August) temperatures can reach 25-31°C.
In this article, we will look at 14 beaches along the Tuscany coastline that each offer something unique. We won’t just look at the beaches themselves, but also how to access them (as some are harder to get to than others), amenities, what to bring, location, and more.
Discovering the Timeless Beauty of the Boboli Gardens in Florence
Tucked away behind the grand Pitti Palace, the Boboli Gardens offer a green oasis in the heart of Florence. These magnificent gardens, one of the first and most significant examples of Italian-style gardens, have lost none of their beauty since Cosimo I de’ Medici commissioned them in the 16th century as a private retreat for his wife, Eleonora di Toledo. With input from some of the Renaissance’s most celebrated architects, including Giorgio Vasari and Bernardo Buontalenti, the gardens became a masterpiece of landscape design, inspiring many European royal gardens, including Versailles.
