Sell Tuscany Beach Flat in San Vincenzo
Livorno – ITALY
San Vincenzo on the Tuscany coast has a ten-kilometer long beach of fine white sand, flanked by a large strip of Mediterranean vegetation. It is the enviable hallmark of this lovely town, one of the major tourist centers on the Etruscan Coast of Tuscany.
San Vincenzo overlooks the Tyrrhenian Sea, south of Livorno. The town offers great facilities and welcoming accommodations for a relaxing holiday on the Tuscan coast. A quiet place to spend a holiday in close contact with nature is easy to find on the slopes of the inimitable hilly landscapes of Tuscany.
The history of San Vincenzo is ancient. Inhabited since prehistoric times, it was an important Etruscan center, both for the proximity to Populonia and for the presence of extensive forests and minerals that favoured the offspring of foundries, making of it the major industrial zone of the area. This importance was confirmed by the Romans, who built one of their major roads near San Vincenzo, the Aurelia Road.
Following historical events, the Republic of Pisa in 1304 destroyed the castle of Biserno building a coastal tower, a customs and a loading dock. This was the inception of a new village of fishermen and farmers, the nucleus of San Vincenzo, which was recognized an independent municipality in 1949.
Today the town looks like a typical tourist town, elegant and comfortable, with ample green spaces. It is still guarded by the ancient coastal tower built by Pisa, recently restored and converted into a cultural and recreational center. From the town you can walk directly to the beautiful sandy beach.
Over ten kilometers of sand, all protected and adorned at its back by a pine tree forest. It is a beach of great natural charm, literally poised between the blue sea and the green pine trees. There are eight modern and well equipped seaside resorts to spend perfect rest days along the Tyrrhenian Sea.
From San Vincenzo you can take advantage of the nearby coastal pine forest and hills to make numerous trips and hikes, bike tours or horseback rides through places of great natural beauty. Especially noteworthy are the Natural Park of Rimigliano in the southern part of the municipal area, and the local hiking trail “Il Corbezzolo” leading through pleasant woods full of precious wildlife.
The Etruscan archaeological site of Populonia, or the medieval villages of Suvereto, Campiglia Marittima, Bolgheri, San Gimignano, to name a few, offer excellent reasons for a historic day trip. And as usual do not miss the local food culture, its special dishes and fine wines. The fish of the sea and the genuine fruits and vegetables of the Val di Cornia are the main sources of food in the area. The wines are also excelent, with prestigious names like Bolgheri.
