The beaches of Follonica are among the most popular in the Maremma, in Tuscany. Located in the homonymous seaside resort, they are famous for being suitable for families with children thanks to its shallow and sloping seabed for several meters from the shore. This charming town has in fact repeatedly won the prestigious Green Flag which is assigned by the Italian Paediatricians Association to beaches suitable for children. Among the criteria for choosing the winning beaches there are, in addition to the cleanliness and physical conformation of the beach, also the services offered to families with children and the spaces dedicated to the smallest of the house. show more

Molto bella

Doccia confortevole, acqua tiepida, bagnini e staff ottimi

Ci torno ogni anno, più che volentieri. Spiaggia e mare sono perfetti, buona vacanza a tutti
-
La spiaggia è bella e in tutta onestà non so dove Laura vada in spiaggia, personalmente ci vado molto presto e non ci sono ombrelloni… comunque il posto merita tanto. Venite a trovarci con un sorriso e con la voglia di relax
-
Peccato che i maleducati lasciano gli ombrelloni sulla spiaggia
-
Ci sono molte spiagge libere facilmente accessibili e in qualcuna è possibile portare il proprio cane. In alcuni punti del litorale è difficile trovare parcheggio, nel complesso è un’ottima località balneare.
