Where we are

NATURE RESERVES.
A Great part of the area of the Costa degli Etruschi is divided into parks and protected green areas.
Near the sea is the Bolgheri Oasis, splendid and picturesque wet zone of international standing, the first faunal sanctuary established in Italy, and inhabited by thousands of aquatic birds.
The Punta Falcone park is to be found at Piombino, in addition to the Sterpaia park on the coast. The Rimigliano park, a verdant faunal oasis on the borders of San Vincenzo, comprises one of the loveliest beaches on the Costa degli Etruschi.

SEA AND BEACHES.
The sea represents the essence of the Costa degli Etruschi, and is your constant companion. The ‘Blue Flag’ beaches, awarded by the European Union and other important recognitions underline the quality of the water and the environment.
The fine white sands of San Vincenzo, Vada and the Gulf of Baratti alternate with the darker and heavier sands of Cecina, Bibbona and Castagneto Carducci.
The pine forests bordering the shores, the characteristic ‘tomboli’ and the Mediterranean vegetation present an ideal environment for pleasant walks and a great variety of sports.

MEDIEVAL VILLAGES.
Nestled snugly between the sea and the hills, or immersed in the countryside, the medieval villages of the Costa degli Eruschi have an air of bygone times.
Suvereto, Compiglia, Bolgheri, Castagneto Carducci, Bibbona, Sassetta, all with their little paved streets and welcoming churches, museums and turreted buildings.
Among this harmonious medieval architecture, much evidence remains of the Etruscan, Roman and Renaissance ages, revealing the heritage of civilisation and history of this area.
