There are 15 villages<\/strong> on the Etruscan Coast, each with its own unique characteristics. They overlook the sea or are immersed in the Mediterranean scrub. The inhabitants are seafarers or farmers, fishermen<\/strong> or winemakers.<\/strong> Everyone wins you over with their incredible charm.
