Experience Follonica and the beauty of Southern Tuscany
Real estate opportunities within beaches and unspoiled nature
Follonica is a famous location of Tuscany Maremma, Southern Tuscany. It is in the center of the homonymous gulf, between the city of Piombino and the exclusive Punt’Ala. It is known worldwide for the mild and breezy climate, the centuries-old pine forests and the crystal clear sea. Loved both by Italian and foreign tourists, its sunsets - overlooking the Elba island - let everybody speechless and attracts real estate investors.
Between history and nature: discovering Follonica and nearby suggestive villages
Follonica was funded in 1834, when Grand Duke Leopold II opened the Imperial Foundries. MAGMA - the Museum of Cast Iron Arts of the Maremma - offers a unique testimony of this ancient, fascinating activity now abandoned.
The town hosts a beautiful pedestrian promenade, two wide pine forests and 8km of coastline. This is composed of free beaches and equipped beach clubs appreciated by families. The whole Gulf offers several wonderful beaches mostly of fine and white sands. Carbonifera, Torre Mozza, Boschetto, Pratoranieri and the Lido are the most popular beaches.
