Versilia
The name Versilia has become over the years synonymous with beach holidays, with beaches long kilometers, beach resorts with high-level services and nightlife have made the fortune of Forte dei Marmi, a VIP resort of which everyone remembers the legendary nightclub La Capannina.
 Perhaps a little less snobby, but certainly no less effervescent, is the Lido di Camaiore, the lively seaside village of a pretty village at the foot of the Apuan Alps. If you are looking for a quieter place, suitable for families, head to Marina di Pietrasanta. Viareggio is the only seaside town in Versilia that attracts tourists even in winter, thanks to its historic Carnival. An elegant holiday resort, rich in Art Nouveau buildings, it is also suitable for young people due to the presence of many nightclubs.

Publication Date  Publication Date: Thursday, August 31, 2023
If you want to immerse yourself in the Italian tradition and have a decidedly rustic experience, you can go and play at the Bridge and Burraco Club in Forte dei Marmi at Via Provinciale 50, obviously a minimum of experience is required.You can take part in their competitions (four weekly bridge tournaments and six burraco tournaments) while the afternoon outside goes by. Another decidedly local experience is to go to see a Forte dei Marmi Hockey Club match.For reading enthusiasts, spending the afternoon in a cosy bookshop with a warm atmosphere with walls invaded by stories and soft lighting will be no problem at all.You can then repair to the Palazzo Mediceo in Seravezza, recognised by Unesco as a world heritage site and renowned in the area for its frequent art exhibitions, especially of photography. Embraced by marble quarries, the palace is characterised by elegance and simplicity; inside, it houses the Municipal Library, the Museum of Work and Popular Traditions of Historical Versilia, as well as the Cinema Scuderie Gran Ducali. Finally, the place where when it rains outside it can be warm, it can take us to the moon or to any other faraway place: the cinema.
