  • Family-friendly site in a Tuscan pine forest by the sea
  • Maremma Regional Natural Park and Orbetello both 10 minutes’ drive
  • Restaurant and shop; sporting activities and cabaret shows in summer
Completely shaded by a canopy of pine forest, Camping Village Africa is five minutes’ drive from the coastal town of Albinia in Tuscany. A trail through the trees leads directly down to the sea, facing the islands of Giglio and Montecristo and framed by the promontories of Monte Argentario and Talamone. Free for site guests to use, the long, sandy Osa Beach is equipped with umbrellas and sun beds (for an extra charge). You can also enjoy scenic strolls along the sand, southwards to the Albegna River (about half an hour’s walk), where you may see grey herons, little egrets and bee-eaters. Turning north, head to Rocca di Talamonaccio (55 minutes) for stellar views over the Ligurian Sea. But what can you expect of the site itself? Well… it has a quality zero-km restaurant serving the best of local seafood, a takeaway service when you’d rather dine “con la famiglia”, and a well-stocked shop bursting with regional produce if you’re committed to self-catering. You can also rent bikes on site and play tennis or football (there’s a charge for the latter). In high season, entertainment and sporting fun is laid on for guests of all ages on the beach, and cabaret shows take place at the restaurant in the evening.

Local attractions

All the sights and activities of Maremma Regional Natural Park are a mere 10 minutes’ drive away; you can spend days hiking and cycling forest trails through the hilly countryside dotted with ancient watchtowers, kayak down the waterways or snorkel off the sandy beaches. There are surf schools at Porto San Stefano (20 minutes' drive), and you can also ride horses through the waves at sunset (10 minutes). Another hotspot for nature-lovers is Feniglia Dune (25 minutes), a thin spit of land connecting the quasi-island of Monte Argentario with the mainland. Here, you can sometimes see flamingos stalking in the shallow waves or deer flitting through trees backing the beach. Several millennia of Tuscan history looms large in these parts: Etruscan figurines adorn the tombs at the Necropolis of Tarquinia (45 minutes), and seaside Orbetello (10 minutes) is still wrapped in segments of its Etruscan walls. Moving forward in time, there’s a landmark walled citadel and spiky defence tower in medieval Magliano in Toscana (20 minutes).
