Look no further than <em>Cinque Vele 2022<\/em>. This guidebook, written by <em>Touring<\/em> and <em>Legambiente<\/em>, outlines the best seaside destinations in Italy, combining stunning beaches and crystal-clear waters, with attention to the environment and amenities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Legambiente<\/em> \u2013 an Italian non-profit environmental organization founded in 1980 \u2013 has scoured the entire peninsula and its islands and a hundred or so districts were analysed. About 40 have been awarded, from the Riviera delle Palme in Le Marche region to Salento area in Puglia, from the Tuscan Archipelago to the Cilento Coast in Campania. The association assigned &#8216;sails&#8217; to each tourist area: from 1 (minimum score) to 5 (maximum score). Sails are symbols that testify not only the level of purity of the water but in general the environmental quality, the presence of amenities and energy consumption \u2013 among the topics analysed, also accessibility of places, level of accommodation and mobility services, efficiency of waste management, care of the area&#8217;s historical and artistic heritage and sustainability initiatives.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Italian areas with the top score<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Liguria <\/strong>\u2013 Let\u2019s begin from Northern Italy with the wonderful <strong>Cinque Terre<\/strong> area in Liguria.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There, together with the beautiful landscape and the quality of the water, you can enjoy picturesque hamlets where traditional cuisine and genuine hospitality still thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Tuscany <\/strong>\u2013 Have you ever thought that Tuscany is also synonym for beautiful beaches?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starting from the Southern part of the region, we find <strong>Costa d\u2019Argento<\/strong> and <strong>Giglio Island <\/strong>offering both sandy beaches like in Capalbio and rocky cliffs like in Monte Argentario.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continuing to the North there is the <strong>Maremma area<\/strong>, where your day at the beach can be combined with a visit to the lovely hamlets nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then another island, <strong>Capraia<\/strong>.
