La Baragghina: Skip the attitude
depmode85 Says:
A spectacular location on the water makes La Baragghina a popular choice. The food is no better or no worse (but more expensive) than other Castiglioncello restaurants. Eat here only if you can stomach their snooty attitudes, which all the waitstaff seemed to share. They act...
CAFFé GINORI: Need a coffee?
Azhut Says:
In Castiglioncello this main Cafè is considered like a meeting point. It's atmosphere is quite elegant with a classic style. You can go there at every hour, but of course in the evening is better to watch new people, especially in the summer.
Most of people that you can...

Castiglioncello is a little village so the best way to stay around is by feet. You can reach every beach and if you want to go out the village it's easy to rent a bicycle or a car if the distances are big.

Sometimes when I go to the beach I'm sure to be safe form the sunburn, but if you have a skin too white and tender, remember to buy a sun cream before going to the beach!

Hard to find a parking place in summer!
Helpfulness
Azhut 1076 reviews
In the summer time Castiglioncello is full of tourists, especially during the week end. This village is very little so there are few parking places (one quite big is close to the Castello Pasquini, another one is located close to the Station).
Unique Suggestions: If you nedd to go to Catiglioncello during the week end, you could find a place for your car if you decide to arrive there early in the mornig. But the best way to not have parking places problems is to arrive there during the week!
Fun Alternatives: A smart alternative is to choose to come there by train, or after renting a bycicle!

Time for taking photos!!!
Azhut Says:
A great digital camera is what u need to take the most beautiful pics of the sea for example, but maybe is better not to take it on the beach, too sand is dangerous:-) I love Olyumpus and Canon digital cameras
walking on the beach
Azhut Says:
nice sea-shoes:-) made of bambu, they are a must this summer! If you want to be trendy buy them!
PAREI
Azhut Says:
For this summer to buy and dress a Pareo is a must, so don't forget to choose yours between many fantastic colours. You can find your pareo in every open-market. In Castiglioncello we have a big open-market every monday morning.
It's very smart thing to have it!!
Azhut Says:
Maybe it's not esay to remember to take a cap with you when you go to the beach, but I can assure you that it's always good to have it, especially if you decide to spend a morning on the beach or to have lunch on it. The sun is very dangerous for your head between 10 a.m....
Surfing in Castiglioncello

During the week you should decide to go surfing. The best place where you can do it is to the Quercetano. There when is very windy it's easy to fing very big waves. Go there for surfing only if you are used to practise this sport.
