Choosing the best beach in Italy is not so easy. In a country that, by and large, is one solid coast, there are an infinite number of options, each of which stands out with something special. Nevertheless, having studied and compared numerous reviews, BlogoItaliano tried to create its own rating, which brings to your attention.
No. 10 Posada, Nuoro, Sardinia
Posada is a municipality in the province Nuoro in Sardinia and the main center of the historical region.

No. 9 Vendicari, Syracuse, Sicily
Vendicari is a special place. Thanks to the efforts of the authorities, which took this area under protection, now Vendikari is not only a paradise for lovers of pristine waters, but also a park where you can meet real turtles and even flamingos. Among the huge number of beaches and lagoons for which it is famous Wendicari, it is especially worth noting the dunes in the southern part of the reserve at Cape Capo Possero (Capo Passero)
№8 Salina, Aeolian Islands
A place hardly anyone has heard of. Salina almost unknown to the Russian-speaking tourist, while being a very popular resort in Italy. An island of volcanic origin with a population of just over 2,000 people, Salina is famous for a wide selection of water activities, from skiing to scuba diving.
A popular summer attraction that attracts many tourists to Domus de Maria - This is camping, and the glory of the place has allowed residents to develop an entire infrastructure for its maintenance. This is one of those places that the main thing to get to, and you can already buy or rent everything you need to set up camp on the spot. However, this does not prevent the beach from being on top. With crystal blue water and white sand, you risk being tempted to spend your entire vacation here. So be extremely careful when drawing Domus de Maria on your card.
There are many stunningly beautiful beaches around Domus de Maria.
Castiglione della Pescaia is a resort that grew up on the site of a fishing village, and the fact that in 2004 it was recognized as the most environmentally friendly in Italy best speaks of the place itself. Since then, however, some time has passed, but blue flags continue to adorn the coastline. And Europe is not for you. The blue flags there are closely watched.
No. 5 Capalbio, Tuscany
Beach in Capalbio famous for its atmosphere. The place retained the color of the outback, due to which it became popular among Italian celebrities. Solitude and respect for privacy allows you to escape from everyday work and get a good discharge against the backdrop of the surrounding nature, beautiful beaches and the spirit of antiquity that has permeated all the surroundings. Holidays here will cost a little more than on most of the Italian coast, but Capalbio is definitely worth it.
# 4 Island of Giglio (Isola del Giglio)
Giglio is a place that you should pay special attention to if only because the island won several times in a row in the ranking of the best places to stay in Italy, updated annually by the Italian environmental organization Legambiente and the tourist association Touring Club Italiano. The island is famous for its rich underwater life and beautiful sandy beaches. On Gilio there is tension with five- and four-star hotels, but perhaps this is its only drawback.
Giglio Island has several times become the best holiday destination in Italy.
No. 3 Taormina, Sicily

No. 2 Mondello, Sicily
Another area in Sicily, which can not be passed by if you are a fan of beach holidays. Once a fishing village overgrown with luxurious villas, becoming the most popular resort for residents of nearby Palermo. Any kind of water entertainment and restaurants famous at all Palermo - Mondello - No. 2 on the BlogoItaliano list.
No. 1 San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily
Securing leadership in today's ranking, the Sicilian town of San Vito Lo Capo has a beach Costa gaiawhich can compete on an equal footing with any resort in the Mediterranean. And although the places here are not as publicized as Taormina, and nightlife is not much more modest than the Greek Mykonos, a 3-kilometer strip of perfectly clean beach can challenge any other candidate for the title of best. Perhaps the peace and untouchedness of these places will inspire someone, but if the leitmotif of your vacation is total relaxation, then San Vito Lo Capo is the right direction.
