Italy’s mainland

in hive-133716 •  3 years ago 

Italy is consistently at the top of our list of ‘best countries in the world.’ However, its dramatic coastlines do not all lend themselves to beach vacations – too many steep steps down to rocky swimming platforms, too many sunbeds crammed into lidos. So, where can you find the best beaches in Italy with plenty of space to play and swim?

The country’s steep coastlines give way to a gentler, flatter landscape in the south. Puglia (pictured), in the remote heel of Italy’s boot, is a sunny haven of sophisticated hotels and sunbed-free sandy beaches, particularly near the Salento peninsula. Cotton-colored sand meets serene, crystal-blue waters on the rugged shores of Calabria, on the very tip of Italy.
And, just off the Amalfi Coast, the idyllic island of Ischia has soft, sandy beaches (Spiaggia dei Pescatori is a must-see) and thermal springs – it’s where Italians go for beach vacations.
