The best locations in Italy for a beach holiday? Following the perimeter of the coasts from west to east, and looking for the most beautiful, cleanest, and possibly… less crowded beach?
From Liguria to Puglia, we suggest dream locations and some addresses that we particularly like. Are you ready to pack your swimsuit, beach towel and tanning cream?
Sicily is certainly one of the most fascinating regions of Italy, rich in history, wonderful beaches and particularly suggestive natural landscapes. However, given the abundance of places to visit, the best solution to see the island is to plan a tour.
Wide choice means there is something for everyone: sandy beaches with shallow waters, pebble beaches with rapidly descending seabeds, rocks and rocky beaches, tiny coves, kilometer-long sandy shores, beaches with all services or remote and solitary.
Sicily three ways is a bustling city break, an island retreat and a chic hilltop town, all rolled into one car-free holiday.

You hear “Puglia” and the sea and summer spring to mind. Inevitably, this is a region with 860 kilometers of coastline, with some of the most beautiful beaches in Italy. But if we love Puglia so much, it is because it is a land where hospitality is at home everywhere, full of history, with that subtle charm that captivates the slow-traveler, but that knows how to be hyper-contemporary and fashionable. A region that offers a unique journey each time, and always a new excuse to return.

Around Italy, there are many small seaside towns that deserve an extended stop. From Liguria to Sicily, from Campania to Puglia, you can find villages by the sea, villages protected by medieval walls with ancient ports, and fascinating cities with a thousand-year history.
The mix of culture, art, shopping and the beach is for many the perfect combination. Here, we present the most fascinating towns on the sea (with beautiful beaches), where you can vent your desire for seaside life, but also for a metropolitan atmosphere.
