About the beach

In the municipality of Castiglione della Pescaia, in the province of Grosseto (Tuscany), Il Fornino beach is a pebble beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.

“Il Fornino beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.

Orientation: southwest (212°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Gregale (NE) or Tramontane (N), keeps it calm; the Libeccio (SW) or Ostro (S) hits it from the sea and can raise waves. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.

Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
