La Spezia, Liguria, Italy

Guvano

Guvano Beach, situated in the port city of La Spezia, boasts a stunning natural oasis adorned with pebbles and verdant Mediterranean flora. Its picturesque shoreline offers a breathtaking view of clear turquoise waters, making it a peaceful and idyllic destination for a seaside vacation. During the 1970s, Guvano Beach became a popular haunt of the hippie community and gained a reputation as one of the most famous nudist beaches in the region. Interestingly, this period was marred by a well-known fistfight between the locals and the hippies. For the more adventurous visitor, renting canoes presents an exceptional opportunity to explore the untouched beauty of the La Spezia area. However, since the collapse of the tunnel leading to the beach in 2012, the area has become challenging to access. Visitors can now only reach the beach via a local train during the tourist season. Despite the logistics of reaching the beach, Guvano Beach remains a top choice for tourists seeking to immerse themselves in the region's natural beauty.
