Nice tourist cycle tour but to be avoided after heavy rains. The route that runs along the sea between Torre Mozza and Torre del sale, the one practically behind the dunes, gets completely flooded and so to finish the tour you have to go on the road and it becomes boring

Sterpaia Beach

Carbonifera Tower

Highlight • Monument

It owes its name to the old hydraulic gate, which was built in 1870 for the recovery of the area.
The tower of the tollbooth together with the small pier are the landmarks of this enchanting beach along the uninterrupted sand coast that rises from Follonica to Piombino.

Piazza Nicola Guerrazzi

Highlight • Settlement

The square hosts the Portale del Mistero, a work by Riccardo Grazzi from 1999. It also hosts the Torre Azzurra. A few meters of track have been left visible to recall the iron coming from nearby Elba and the shuttle to the foundry carried out by small wagons.

The allegorical sculpture represents a staircase leading to a curved door, and is positioned on the terrace overlooking the sea in front of Piazza del Popolo, facing the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Prato Ranieri Seafront

Highlight • Beach

Pratoranieri is less than 5 km from the center of Follonica, and is easily reachable on foot and by bicycle, also thanks to a stretch of pedestrianized coastline and a cycle path. The beach, composed of fine golden sand, appears narrow and long in the perfect style of Follonica's beaches, mostly free; only a small part is dedicated to beach establishments, where it is possible to rent water sports equipment.
