About the beach

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

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

Orientation: north (340°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ostro (S) or Sirocco (SE), keeps it calm; the Tramontane (N) or Mistral (NW) 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.

Bathing water rated sufficient by the EEA (2025 season).
