Things to Do  

Beach attitude

Beach attitude, Viareggio

 BruceDunning Says:  The beach and the water are very nice. The attempts to get to the beach was difficult. All are private and costs money to enter. We were only here for a short 1/2 day so did not enter. Cost is about 7-10 Euro for a day. The city is a seaside resort for a lot of European...

Tito Del Molo: Go for the fish!, Viareggio

 zogfield Says:  One of the more expensive restaurants on the promenade but definitely worth it. Has a much more italian feel to it than the other, more touristy and overpriced restaurants further down, proved by the number of locals to be found here. I've only eaten outside so can't really...

BruceDunning profile photo

 The beach looked very large and clean. The problem is that is appears all to be private, so that costs money. The city name means "way of the kings". The old new city is only from early 1500's when......
