Castiglioncello
Famous worldwide as a tourist destination, and rightly known by some as the "pearl of the Tyrrhenian", Castiglioncello is blessed with an undying allure. With its red cliffs plunging into the sea, its sheltered coves, beaches and pools of crystal-clear water, and a beautiful pinewood that has inspired artists, writers and poets, Castiglioncello knows how to welcome its visitors. Even Alberto Sordi fell for the place, to the extent that he bought a lavish villa on the Castiglioncello coastline, where he loved to pass his "joyous holidays".
Enjoy the sea & the beach
Of course you can enjoy the see from the two terraces of the house… but if you want to appreciate the beach, best is to rent a spot on one of the private beaches for the day or the week. We advise “Bagni Italia” (the white one in the middle of the bay) or “Bagni Nettuno” (blue, the last one on the left).
What to do in Castiglioncello?
As shown in the works of the Macchiaioli painters, this little town was historically visited by big names in art, making it a lively cultural centre.
But Castiglioncello is more than the sum of its cultural parts. It also offers a range of sporting opportunities, from watersports to tennis to trekking. Chioma has a diving centre that attracts enthusiasts from all over Italy; the thick pinewood, meanwhile, is ideal for leisurely strolls.

- Open air movie theater
