Castiglione della Pescaia is considered an expensive and prestigious resort, where visitors come to enjoy Italian cuisine, pristine sandy beaches, the old town, and a centuries-old pine forest. That’s why the “bandito-gangsterito” here doesn’t “rob in un momento,” but rather “relaxes, drinks Cinzano, and stays full and tipsy” along with other tourists. People here are very open and friendly, many speak English, the streets are clean and beautiful, so there’s no need to worry about your safety while on vacation. However, pickpockets do operate in crowded places.
Safety in Castiglione della Pescaia is ensured by the municipal police. On the beaches, the sea area is patrolled by the coast guard and lifeguards. Tourists are advised to avoid illegal street vendors who sometimes appear near cultural landmarks.
So our advice is — don’t swim too far and be careful during storms. Other than that — enjoy your holiday!
