About the beach
Spiaggia Le Francesche, within Capoliveri (the province of Livorno, Tuscany), is a pebble beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The beach faces south (186°). It is most sheltered when the Tramontane (N) or Gregale (NE) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Ostro (S) or Libeccio (SW) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
