White Beaches (Spiagge Bianche)

Not yet rated — this could be your moment.

The White Beaches (Italian: Spiagge Bianche) are a stretch of about five kilometers of sandy coastline located in the municipality of Rosignano Marittimo in Tuscany, between the hamlets of Rosignano Solvay and the center of the hamlet of Vada. Bathed by the Thyrrenian sea, they are located at the northernmost edge of the Maremma coastline.
The unusual color of the sand, which leads to comparisons with tropical coastlines, is the result of years of processing and discharge of calcium carbonate by a Solvay Group plant located in Rosignano Solvay, about a kilometer from the coast. The soda plant, which is the largest in Europe, was built in 1912 near the beach and began operations in 1914, producing, in addition to soda ash, hydrogen peroxide, polyethylene, calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and hydrochloric acid.
