About Versilia
Versilia is the coastal strip of northern Tuscany, with long sandy beaches, seaside towns and the marble mountains of the Apuan Alps behind.
Versilia is a narrow strip of coast in northern Tuscany, between the Ligurian Sea and the steep, pale mountains of the Apuan Alps. Its main town is Viareggio, a seaside resort with a long promenade of Liberty-style cafés and hotels and a carnival in February with huge papier-mâché floats. Forte dei Marmi, further north, is a smart beach resort of pines and villas, and Pietrasanta is a small town of sculptors' workshops and marble.
