What is the distance between Massa Marittima and the sea?

The sea is located about 20 km from Massa Marittima : allow roughly 20 to 25 minutes by car to reach Follonica and its seafront. The exact distance varies depending on the beach and the starting point in the historic centre.

Without a car, a bus connects Massa Marittima to Follonica in about 30 minutes, but check the timetables for the day of your trip: frequency and services may vary. You will then have to get to the beach from the stop where you get off. Massa Marittima is therefore close enough to the coast for a day trip, but it is not a seaside resort: you stay in the hinterland and take the road to go swimming.
