The Seaside in the Etruscan CoastThe coasts of Tuscany are varied and full of long
beaches of fine sand or rocks of differing shapes
and tones. The sea of the Maremma is undoubtedly the
cleanest along the Tuscany coast, owing to a predominance
of natural reserves and the slow development of tourism.
Even from inland areas, on day trips, some of the
more stunning beaches can be reached: Baratti, Rimigliano,
Marina di Castagneto, Torre Mozza. The beaches, surrounded
by Mediterranean scrub, are often reached up through
short paths through the ancient pinewoods, and it
is not uncommon to find, besides crystal clear waters,
isolation and quiet even in the summer months.
Some areas of coast features do however come with
fully equipped bathing establishments.
Le terme di Venturina
Già note in epoca etrusca e conosciute dai romani come “Aquae Populoniae", le terme offrono acqua a 36° a base di zolfo, alcali e terra.
La sorgente alimenta lo stabilimento dei “Bagni di Caldana”, ben attrezzato per trattamenti terapeutici ed il lago “Il Calidario”.
Spas
Well known since Etruscans times, recognized
by the ancients as a source of therapeutic and miraculous
virtues.
Besides the elegant buildings of the Terme di Saturnia,
are the renowned "cascatelle", a natural waterfall outside
the village, where bathing takes place even in winter
owing to the constant water temperature of 37°C. The sulphurous
waters are therapeutic for the skin, the respiratory apparatus,
muscles and bones.
