Marina di Bibbona Beach

With miles of fine sand backed by pinewoods, the beach at Marina di Bibbona is a nature lover's paradise with plenty of free, undisturbed areas. There are also lido concessions for those who prefer to be up off the sand on a sun bed with an umbrella for shade, and facilities like snack bar, showers, changing cabins and restrooms. Whatever your preference, the beach at Marina di Bibbona is a winner, on the so-called Costiera degli Etruschi (or, Etruscan Coast).

Awarded the Blue Flag for its cleanliness, the water is indeed clear and starts out shallow, great for kids. Walks along the sandy shore or in the cool shade of the pines is a favored activity, besides swimming or paddling a kayak. The pines are also ideal for a picnic, biking or horse riding.

Next to the pines is the Forte di Bibbona, an old fortress, and sometimes the village was referred to as Marina del Forte for its presence here. A few of the Lido beaches include Bagni Cormorano and Sorbizzi Beach. There are also beaches that are dog-friendly, called Bau Beach.

There are some restaurants, gelaterias, and services in the village, all mostly seasonal.
