MAREMMA TOSCANA PROMOTION VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTkx4OtHZcU

Picturesque pine forests and shady olive groves, verdant green hills which seem to stretch on forever, the crystal clear water of the Tyrrhenian Sea: it is easy to understand how one could fall in love with Maremma. On the other hand, it seems hard to understand why this paradise on earth is still only known to a select few.

Perhaps it is because Maremma has lived in isolation for centuries, maintaining its rugged allure to this day, thanks to the pristine coastline and wild national parks stretching for miles. The full magic of Maremma unfolds only to those who take the time to discover it and open their hearts to the charm of this wonderful region. Those who do are richly rewarded because Maremma casts a spell on its guests. Fabulous sunsets over the gently undulating hills, countless well-preserved medieval hamlets where you can retrace and breathe in history. And of course the sea; 250 kilometers of the most beautiful sandy beaches line the Maremma coast. LAY-DAY ACTIVITIES: 28 Settembre 2017 Diaccia Botrona and Le Mortelle estate
