Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi are in their own little world there on the coast of Tuscany. Viareggio is perhaps most famous for Carnevale. Next to Venice and Rio, Viareggio comes in third, drawing over a million people. The elaborate parade, running along the seafront promenade, is usually held the three Sundays before carnevale, the day of carnevale (Shrove Tuesday), and the Sunday following. Admission is charged for the parades. Theater, music, masked balls and other events are held during the carnival season, too. There's even a carnival museum in town. Summer Festivals include Cittadella Jazz and More from mid-June through mid-August. The annual Puccini Opera Festival attracts fans from around the world and is held at Torre di Lago Puccini just outside of town. Other stuff includes:
Beaches - The coast is lined with privately owned sandy beaches. For a price, you get a beach chair and umbrella and use of facilities like changing rooms. The sea is usually calm and good for swimming.
Promenade - A seafront promenade lined with shops, cafes, and restaurants runs between the beach and town. It's the place to see and be seen, especially during the evening passeggiata (passeggiata definition).
Pineta di Ponente - The large pinewood park, just two blocks from the beach, is a good place for walking and escaping the sun.
Piazza Shelley - One of the town squares is named for the poet Shelley who drowned nearby off the coast in 1822.
Liberte Houses - Villa Paolina, named for Napolean's sister, this is one of several art nouveau villas in town. Villa Paolina is near Piazza Shelley.
