Five sails, which is the best rating given, were awarded to two locations in the Maremma: the medieval hamlet of Capalbio that overlooks the sea and further along the coast to the town of Castiglione della Pescaia, a coastal fishing town with top quality beaches and enchanting coastal pine forests.
Five sails were also awarded to Capraia Island (Livorno), a true paradise that is part of a protected marine area, much-loved by snorkelers.
Grosseto’s Marine, Orbetello’s lagoon, and Follonica were all awarded four sails as were Scarlino's Cala Violina and Giglio Island, one of the jewels of the Tuscan Archipelago, which boasts beautiful beaches like Cala delle Cannelle, famous for its fine, white sand.
A total of 23 Tuscan beaches were awarded by the Blue Guides 2010 with sails: over 600 kilometres of coastline along the Ligurian and Tyrrhenian seas and various national parks and protected nature areas, sandy beaches, coastal pine forests and hidden bays and coves.
