It is situated in the centre of the Tuscany coast, along a coast line of 10 Km. This town is entirely plunged into the nature and it is between two important cities, Pisa and Livorno. Tirrenia has a very fertile territory which in the course of the ages has acquired the features of the above mentioned cities which despite their closeness have different traditions.
Tirrenia has a favourable position thanks to the following four factors:
- The fishy sea that gives people the chance to go in for aquatic sports
- The green mediterranean pine-wood which is suitable for relaxing walks, horse and bicycle rides.
- The navigable river where pleasure-boats find easily assistance service all the year round.
- A diffuse communication line thanks to the nearby Pisa international airport “ Galileo Galilei “, to the harbour of Livorno and also to the near motor-way entrances .
Tirrenia mediterranean climate permits nice and suitable seasons: colourful days in spring , warm and bright in the summer and relaxing in autumn.
A lot of time
ago, in these places there was the wild nature with her beaches and her
pinewood overhanged by the ancient Fortino. Throughout the Fascism Tirennia
became a tourist and bathing locality: the “Pearl of the Mediterraneo”. So
they have been created structures for physical and ideological formation.
Then they have been built house, building and new streets.
Tirrenia is a really crowded especially during the summer season, here the people have the possibility to spend the whole day on the well equipped beaches.
There are many sport activities :
Beach volley, Sailing , Underwater fishing, Tennis, Football, Golf and Horse riding. Such sports can be played in the numerous sports complexes plunged into the green. There is also a wide choice of daily excursion :
Bocca d'Arno with its “retoni” (particular hanging fishing-nets) situated among the contour line of San Rossore and just in front of Alpi Apuane , San Rossore Natural Park where there are stables near the homonymous race-course, the near Tuscany archipelago and also the huge historic and artistic patrimony of cities, such as Pisa , Lucca , Volterra, Firenze, Siena, and also other wonderful little centres that can be discovered wherever.
We recommend you a quiet and comfortable staying full of amusement, at the numerous camping-sites or in a boarding-house and also in luxurious hotels. If you try you will understand that this is not the usual publicity because when you come to Tirrenia you will become its greatest supporter after few days.
