Natural Reserve of “Bandite di Scarlino”
Distance 8 km
The Bandite Nature Reserve covers almost 9000 hectares of fragrant, lush Mediterranean scrub.
Here you will find some of the most beautiful beaches in Tuscany, reachable only walking, but with crystal clear waters and views that make it a special destination. These include Cala Francese, Cala Martina – linked to Giuseppe Garibaldi -, and the enchanting Cala Violina, awarded by Legambiente as one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in Italy, surrounded by Mediterranean maquis, fine white sand and crystal clear waters.
Massa Marittima
Distance 20 km
Strolling through the village of Maremma, among the historic buildings, there are wonderful views over the countryside and as far as the sea. The Piazza Garibaldi, overlooked by the Cathedral of San Cerbone, the Palazzo del Podestà, the Palazzo dei Conti di Biserno and the Palazzo Comunale, the result of the incorporation of various thirteenth-century houses and towers, is of outstanding beauty.
Castiglione Della Pescaia
Distance 20 km
An imposing castle and the medieval village dominate a breathtaking landscape: the clear blue sea with its beaches, the dunes, the amazing pine forest that stretches for kilometres, the large wetland area of Diaccia Botrona. Castiglione della Pescaia is a unique place where nature, tradition and culture come together in an atmosphere of ancient flavour, still linked to fishing.
Populonia
Distance 35 km
It stretches between the slopes of the Piombino promontory and the Gulf of Baratti, where the Etruscan and Roman town of Populonia once stood, known since antiquity for its intense metallurgical activity linked to the production of iron. It includes a significant part of the Etruscan and Roman town of Populonia, with its vast necropolis, calcarenite quarries and industrial districts where hematite ore was processed.
Firenze
Distance 140 km
An important UNESCO World Heritage town, it is considered the birthplace of the Renaissance and is universally recognised as one of the cradles of art and architecture, as well as being renowned as one of the most beautiful towns in the world thanks to its many monuments and museums.
