The best beaches in Italy have been chosen from thousands of contenders that occupy the country's various coastlines and islands. So numerous were the wonderful beaches to choose from that it was impossible to narrow the list down any further than these 34 selections.
Of course any list like this is subjective and a matter of opinion but rest assured the decisions were not taken lightly and every one of the beaches listed was visited in person. It's quite difficult to make these choices in some way because how can you say one beach is better than another? |

What are the criteria set out when some people may value the facilities around the beach, others give greater priority to the aesthetics and others still want the softest sand?
Taking those and many other elements into consideration, it's hard to look beyond the claims of the Spiaggia dei Conigli which translates into Rabbit Beach. It's the most famous beach on the Sicilian island of Lampedusa and recently won Tripadvisor's award of best beach in the world. The beautiful La Pelosa Beach in Sardinia ran it a close second and to be even the best beach in Sardinia is quite an accolade.
