Picture this: you're lying in the shade of the lush leafy garden, there's a stunning salt-water pool on your right and a cocktail to your left. Sounds like a dream, right? Locanda Al Colle offers a tranquil escape in the gorgeous Forte dei Marmi.

To pedestrians, Bar Pietrasantese might look like any other sun-soaked piazza spot, but with warm Italian hospitality, an extensive list of cocktails, and a secret bar to boot, it's the perfect spot for a late-afternoon Aperol Spritz. Keep this one to yourself, grazie.

Located in a secluded stone courtyard behind Pietrasanta’s winding streets, Da Giacomo is all white linen tablecloths and old-world Italian charm – la dolce vita at its best. The menu changes with the seasons, showcasing fish delivered fresh each day by local fishermen. Highlights include tuna tartare with blueberries and basil, lobster calamarata pasta, and the standout red prawn tartare paired with mandarin sorbet.

A simply lovely beach club, especially very well equipped for families. Bagno America is located to the east of Forte dei Marmi, in the Roma Imperiale area, the most famous part of the town.
