Why always the same town, you might wonder. But those who know this place will agree with me: Forte has a certain magic.

Nestled at the foothills of the Apennines, directly by the sea (with beautiful bagni), it offers stunning views of the mountains and easy access to all the treasures of Tuscany. 

In previous years, especially when the weather was cooler or we were less tired, we alternated beach days with sightseeing days. By now, we’ve seen almost all the villages and cities in Tuscany, with our favorites being Florence, Lucca, and Siena. This year, during our two-week stay, we only managed a tourist visit to Lucca. The rest of the days were spent relaxing on the beach, with Socks comfortably in the shade under the beach chair. Walking around Siena in nearly 40-degree heat is no fun for anyone, especially not for Finn and Socks.

The town offers enough entertainment to stay for days without feeling the need to move around, at least that’s what we think. There are plenty of coffee places to drink delicious cappuccinos and cakes. Forte offers some amazing shops (mostly unaffordable, but window shopping is also fun during an evening stroll), plenty of restaurants to explore the delightful Italian cuisine, a fantastic market in the center every Wednesday, and a mini-market on Saturdays at the same spot. Every third Saturday of the month, there’s also an antique market in the center, which we will unfortunately miss this year. This is the only thing I regret because in past years I’ve bought beautiful vintage lamps for our home, and I wanted to continue that tradition.

We spend our days on the beach, going to bed late and getting up late but just in time for breakfast until 10:30, having pre-booked a bagno through our hotel.

NOTE: IN FORTE DEI MARMI, THE ENTIRE BEACH IS DIVIDED INTO

PRIVATE BAGNI WHERE YOU CAN’T JUST LAY DOWN. SOME HOTELS HAVE

THEIR OWN BAGNO, BUT EVEN THEN, BOOKING IN ADVANCE IS A MUST.

Our bagno provides an umbrella, two sunbeds, and two deck chairs where our small but happy

family, including our dog, can enjoy the shade as dogs are allowed on the beach. We have

lunch at the bagno’s restaurant, which offers light dishes. Here, I enjoy the view of the sea

and the wonderful atmosphere, despite the extra pounds I might gain (I can handle it, I

know…).
