Italy is a country of great tourist opportunities. What a vacation on the beaches of Italy! After all, it is hard to imagine more civilized and well-maintained coastlines in all of Europe.
Features of beach vacation in Italy
We have listed the most popular beach resorts in Italy in the "Where to go in Italy" section. And the good news for all travelers is that almost all the beaches in these resorts are public. This means that there is no entrance fee, and you only need to pay for sunbeds and umbrellas. However, you are also welcome to relax on the beach with your own towel - no one will judge you for that.
Fines for swimming at night
Beach regulations in Italy have another feature that may be unfamiliar to our tourists. It is strictly forbidden to swim at night (from 1:00 am to 5:00 am). If you are caught by the coast guard, you will have to pay a fine of €150.
Sand or pebbles
Many beaches in Italy have pebbles, although there are also sandy ones. However, the entry into the water is generally soft everywhere, which is convenient for bathing small children.
When to go to Italy for a beach vacation
The most optimal time for a family beach vacation in Italy is May-June and September. It can be very hot during the peak of summer.
