Many people visit Italy to experience the history and culture of this country. However, it is also a fantastic place to visit if you want to soak up the sun or relax. If this is your preferences, then you should head to the coast so that you can take advantage of the stunning beaches. Even if you choose to visit an inland location, you should take a trip to the coast on at least one day of your vacation. Here are the top ten beaches in Italy.
1. Levanto, Liguria
Levanto is one of the best spots if you want to switch between surfing and sunbathing. It is located on the westernmost point of the Cinque Terre.
2. Forno, Elba, Tuscany
Elba has five main beaches and many of these are very busy. If you are looking for somewhere with a more peaceful atmosphere to relax, then Forno is the best option. This beach is in the bay of Biodola.
3. Cefalu, Sicily
Although this is a major tourist resort, it is not as developed as many other areas of Sicily. This means that the creamy, curving sands are a pleasant place to relax.
4. Spiaggia del Fornillo, Positano, Amalfi Coast
This beach is located in one of the most expensive areas of Italy. However, the beach has a stunning backdrop of cliffs dotted with greenery.
5. San Domino, Tremeti Islands
Of the three Tremeti Islands, San Domino is the greenest. Therefore, it is a great place to get out of the sun when the weather is at its hottest. If you want a beach with a busy vibe, then head for Calla
