Yacht charter
Last updated on 8 April 2025
Follonica is an Italian commune in the province of Grosseto in the Tuscany region of Italy. This municipality has been ranked the top seaside resort for the whole of Italy. This port is a perfect point of departure for visiting the island of Elba by sailboat, located 15 nautical miles away.
A leading seaside resort for Italians, Follonica embellishes the Tyrrhenian coast, in the center of the gulf of the same name, facing the island of Elba. Stretching over kilometers of fine sandy beaches, its crystal clear sea remains impressive! Every year since 2000, it has been awarded the European Blue Flag, guaranteeing the environmental quality of its waters and beaches.
Charming cultural city
Embellishing the province of Grosseto, in Tuscany, Follonica fascinates with its historic architecture. An imposing cast iron gate, built in the 19th century, recalls its industrial past and marks the entrance to the old foundry. The city developed in step with the economic and cultural importance of its foundry, which at the time was the second largest in Europe. The use of iron and its derivatives also characterize the region.
A wide range of sporting activities also awaits vacationers who enjoy a stroll through the city. Inline hockey, soccer, rhythmic gymnastics and bicycle racing are just some of the activities on offer. The region is also characterized by its traditional festivals, including the medieval shows in May and August, which are a great opportunity to discover the art of the crossbow. On the evening of August 14th, the fireworks of the famous Roman festival, Ferragosto, are also not to be missed. It will be an ideal opportunity for gourmets to enjoy the famous Bruschetta at Aperitivo time. A succulent specialty made with toasted bread, fresh tomatoes, Italian ham and olive oil. A real delight, not to be missed!
A complete change of scenery guaranteed
With its scarlet waters, coves and dreamy anchorages, its beaches offer a complete change of scenery. There's nothing better than a yacht charter in Follonica to fully enjoy the beauty of the region!
Don't miss strolling along one of the 10 most beautiful unspoiled beaches in Italy, located 5 km south of Follonica. Running along this beach would produce a sound resembling that of a violin, hence its name Cala Violina. You can also enjoy the Acquavillage water park or the superb Hawaii beach with family or friends. Relaxation and a change of scenery also await you on the reassuring beach of Prato Ranieri, with artificial reefs designed to break the waves. Kayaking, pedalos and aqua fitness await you there.
