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.
One beach resort that has always been a magnet for holidaymakers is Sardinia. Widely accepted as having some of the most amazing sands and sea throughout the Mediterranean, the high quality villas and hotels that serve the area are in good supply.
Another popular destination, though not for its beaches, is Tuscany. However, set in the breathtaking region of Monte Argentario lie some amazing beaches which just beckon visitors to relax.
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.
