RadaEtrusca Camping is directly by the sea

Camping directly on the sea RadaEtrusca

The convenience of camping directly by the sea...

RadaEtrusca Camping is located directly by the sea, there are no roads to cross to get to the beach. It is located near a biogenetic reserve, in a natural environment that is respected and protected.

The campsite is suitable for adults and children, so it is also suitable for children who find a hospitable and natural environment. The campsite does not offer organized animation service, so bring a shovel and bucket...

Access to the beach and the sea is from the campsite. The distance between the shoreline of the spacious free beach and the entrance gate to the campsite is about 50 meters, with no long walks under the sun to bring deck chairs, canoes, or strollers...

The campsite emphasizes respect for nature and pursues a light impact on the environment that surrounds it. For these reasons, there are no swimming pools or concrete structures at RadaEtrusca Camping, and there is no organized entertainment. Instead, you can relax and enjoy a vacation full of sports such as sailing, surfing, kite surfing, wind surfing, canoeing, beach volleyball, swimming, snorkeling, and apnea... At the end of the day, you will need to relax, preferably on a cot directly on the sea ;-) or maybe some food from the campsite restaurant.
If, after a day at the beach or on the sea, you still have energy, you can walk or bike to the nearby town of Vada or Vada Mazzanta. Cecina, Rosignano, Castiglioncello are also nearby.

Ancient map of the location of Vada Volterrana and the area south of Livorno

Vada, in the province of Livorno, Tuscany, Italy...

...is located a few kilometers from the mouth of the Cecina River and the homonymous municipality. In a 45-minute drive by car, you can reach Volterra.

The town of Vada was once known as Vada Volterrana (or Volaterrana) and was, in the Etruscan-Roman era, the port of Volterra. The name itself probably derives from the term "vadum" which means "landing" and recalls this function. Recent archaeological studies have revealed the presence of several buildings and finds of the Etruscan era in the area of Vada called San Gaetano.

Discover where we are

The settlement, also mentioned by Cicero and Pliny, arose on the Old Aurelia: in fact, the kilometer stone bearing the 287th kilometer from the Capitoline Hill of Rome is observable on the central square of the village. When Rutilio Namaziano visited Vada in 417 AD, he documented the presence of salt pans in full operation, and production continued even in the Middle Ages, mentioned in numerous archive documents...

Was Vada a refuge for Saracen pirates?

It seems that Vada later became a refuge for Saracen pirates, engaged in raids on the sea, of which there are testimonies of amphorae and terracotta vases lying on the seabed: the area is in fact also known as Rada del Saraceno and there are several dozen underwater wrecks in the nearby Secche di Vada, visible with scuba diving.
Camping by the sea RadaEtrusca: wild flora
The ancient and best preserved building in Vada is the Torre di Vada. It was built by the Pisans towards the end of the 13th century and used as a lighthouse for coastal navigation in a stretch of sea that has always been very risky due to its low and sandy bottoms. The Tower is now a laboratory of environmental education and exhibition center.
Today the village is largely located on land that was once marshy. Some areas of the town are still below sea level. In the 19th century, the area was reclaimed thanks to the work of the Lorena family, who made the coastal areas habitable and cultivable.
