Though Italy remains a popular holiday destination for many, it is surprising to learn that only a small number of these are taken by the coast. With such a wealth of wonderful destinations however, perhaps it is time to discover the beauty of beach holidays in Italy.
A beach resort which has been popular for sometime however is on the island of Sardinia. Quite possibly the best beaches within the whole of Europe are here, and with the Mediterranean gently lapping its shores alongside the wonderful resorts that line the coast, it is still relatively quiet.
One of the most popular destinations throughout Italy is Tuscany of course; with amazing scenery, beautiful climate and wonderful food and drink. However, the coast is often neglected. Visitors here should certainly check out the benefits of the beaches of Monte Argentario.
Here in particular there are some wonderful private villas which can be rented for days or weeks at a time. Though the sea waters are inviting, the appeal of a private pool to relax in through the day or night is always welcome. Other great destinations include the beaches in Gallipoli and Sicily, where Syracuse is a always welcoming.
Sicily has so much more to offer than this however, and the wonderful archipelago of the Egadi Islands is beautiful; set amongst the devastatingly clear sea. With some of the most amazing seafood throughout Italy too, it makes for a memorable trip.
For those looking for the full beach experience, there is little that can compare with the resorts of Viareggio and Rimini on the west and east coasts respectively. The former is full of opulence and decadence, whilst the latter is a heady mix of culture and partying.
Holidays in Italy are always full of opportunities, and there is no reason why beaches cannot play a full part in this. With wonderful foods and wines to enjoy too, relaxing as the warm seas gently lap against the white sands is hard to beat.
