Where are the best beaches in Italy Vol. II


Italy beaches: Eolie
Not long time ago we said in this post that there's a rule to find the best beaches in Italy. Do you remember? It's quite easy:

The best beach is the hardest to reach

And which one is it then? Our answer was the tiny islands that surround the Italian coast, from Tuscany to the south of Italy, to the Adriatic side. Maybe not as many and renowned as those of the Greek sea, but this is why Italian islands are more attractive than Greek ones: there are no airports and even few ferries to reach them.

A rule to find the best beaches in Italy


Elba Island, Tuscany
When it's time to look for the most gorgeous beach for your next travel plans, the rule is one: the best one is the most hard to reach!
You are already imagining it: a place where no trains arrive, where buses are to big to pass through the narrow road, where the closest bar is one mile far. Where lazy tourists don't go and you are the boss. Where can you find such a place in Italy? Are you thinking at the Amalfi coast? Yes, an idyllic place, with incredible coves down the cliffs, like this... But you're wrong! You wouldn't find more than one meter of empty space among all the tiny beaches of the small villages along this coast. That's not a place 'hard to reach'.

Italy's Top 10 Travel Destinations: ranking update


Italy's top destinations
Two months ago we published the first ranking of the best travel destinations in Italy according to the experiences that many travelers shared on Gadders.eu, the new platform for social traveling.
With summer holidays almost ending we can now see how things changed.
The parameters on which the chart is based? The beauty of the places first of all, but also the fun activities you can do and its nightlife, how much safe is staying in each place and how cheap is to travel there, and last but not least, talking about Italy, the quality of the food!

5 good reasons to travel to the Isle of Capri


Capri, Italy
In our long travel up and down Italy, we have already talked about all the southern regions of the Bel Paese and their calm, blue waters: the hot Sicily, the charming Amalfi coast, the wild Calabria, the young Apulia, the cool Emerald Coast. But it’s really incredible how, in such a small part of the globe, there are still many other idyllic places to discover.
A destination that can’t be missed is for sure Capri, the most known isle of the gulf of Naples.
It is a legendary idyll: Capri’s beguiling combination of fabled beauty and hedonism has charmed Roman emperors, Russian revolutionaries and showbiz stars for decades.
