A day at the beach with your dog in Tuscany
The Etruscan Coast offers several beaches where you can enjoy a day by the sea with your dog. Popular destinations include San Vincenzo, Marina di Bibbona, Cecina, Follonica and Marina di Grosseto, with both free beaches and equipped beach clubs offering parasols, water bowls, dog showers and dedicated areas.
Before setting off, always check the regulations issued by the local council or your chosen beach, as access rules, opening times and available services may change during the season. Bring a lead, a muzzle to use if requested, waste bags and up-to-date health documents.
Remember to pack fresh water, a portable bowl, a towel and something to provide shade. Avoid the hottest hours, check the temperature of the sand and never force your dog into the water. With a little preparation, you can enjoy beaches, pine forests and relaxing seafront walks together in complete peace of mind.
