"Costa degli Etruschi" is the name of the coastal belt which encloses the natural oasis of Bolgheri, the wonderful pine-wood of Cecina, the beautiful hills of Bibbona, Bolgheri and Monte Calvi where the typical Mediterranean vegetation alternates with fantastic chestnuts.

The medieval towns of Castagneto Carducci, Suvereto and Campiglia Marittima are a must for those who love art and history: tourists can admire the well-preserved ancient walls and the wonderful fortified buildings.

Inside the Etruscan times one of the most important activities in the area (above all in Monte Calvi) was mining.

In the Etruscan Coast there are a lot of interesting places to visit and discover: Piombino, the nearby Gulfof Baratti and the necropolis of Populonia, an ancient Etruscan city where metals mined from the island of Elba were processed.

To mention the natural park of "Rimigliano" in San Vincenzo, a must for those who want to admire the landscape and always be close to nature.
