The area includes the Communes of Viareggio, Camaiore, Pietrasanta, Forte dei Marmi, Massarosa, Seravezza and Stazzema, the Regional Park of Migliarino-San Rossore-Massaciuccoli to the South and the Park of Apuane to the North. It is close to art cities such as Lucca (20 Km), Pisa (21 Km) and Florence (100 Km). It is easy to reach with any means of transport.
It is possible to come to Versilia on holidays during the whole year.
During the summer, when the sun heats the sandy beaches, the vicinity of the Apuane mitigates the heat and the climate becomes pleasant with windy days and fresh nights. During the day, it is possible to enjoy oneself on the beach and take a plunge in the sea, or a walk within the green of the pine forests, on the hills or on mountain paths, or take a visit to art cities and small villages well known to mass tourism.
During the night, there is only the embarrassment of choosing, from night clubs to open door theatres, from shopping to cultural exhibitions, from gastronomic feats ("sagre") to simple walks. Following the trend of Capannina in Forte dei Marmi and Bussola in Focette, two night clubs that are the symbols of the golden years, in Versilia are gathered pubs, piano bars and disco bars, discos, and other meeting places where music trends are able to satisfy every needs, from jazz to opera, from classical music to the latin-american one.
Versilia offers all year long a rich events calendar of national and international level, among which Viareggio Carnival, Puccini's and Versiliana Festival, Europacinema, and the Satire Award stand out. Furthermore, there are classical music concerts in Pieve a Elici, organ concerts in Corsanico, ancient traditions of sawdust carpets in Camaiore and of the living creche in Pruno, artistic exhibitions in Pietrasanta, surveys of Demetra typical products in Capezzano, "Enolia" in Seravezza and several gastronomic feasts scattered around the whole area during the whole year.
