Mirollino, Beach in Piombino, Italy
Mirollino is a beach on the Tuscan coast near Piombino with light sand and gradual access to the sea. A dense pine forest stands directly behind the shore and creates natural shade zones for visitors.
The area was strategically important because of Torre Mozza, a watchtower from the 16th century that protected merchant ships from pirates. The beach developed later as a landing point for local fishing boats.
The fishing community next to the shore shapes daily life here even today. Morning meals at waterfront restaurants feature fresh catches you can see arriving directly from local boats.
The beach offers umbrella rentals, showers, and changing facilities for visitors. The on-site restaurant serves meals during summer months and is easily reached on foot from the sand.
The pine trees behind the beach release a scent that mixes with salt water and the breeze. This aroma is especially strong in warm afternoons when the sun warms the tree canopy.
