Villas in Marina di Bibbona

About Marina di Bibbona

Marina di Bibbona grew around an 18th-century fort built to guard the coast against pirates, and most of what surrounds it went up from the 1980s as summer homes and tourist residences. The beach is long and broad, with dunes, Mediterranean shrub and a juniper-filled pinewood behind. Bathing establishments alternate with free stretches, and some allow dogs. Our homes are bunched within about a kilometre or so of each other. Nearly all have a pool and a garden, most sleep two to four, and none sleeps more than six. The tourist board calls the climate mild and the resort quiet, and coastal restaurants serve local fish dishes. There were 192 residents here in 2011.
