Torvaianica, Beach resort town in Pomezia, Italy

Located on the Tyrrhenian Sea coast, Torvaianica extends for eight kilometers along the central Lazio shoreline with a population of 17,235 residents.

The area takes its name from Torre del Vajanico, a defensive tower constructed in 1580 to protect the coastline from pirate attacks.

The town transformed from a 1940s fishing community into a modern coastal settlement following the successful reclamation of the Pontine Marshes.

Tourists can access Torvaianica through regular bus connections from Rome, with numerous accommodations available along the beachfront.

Archaeological excavations near Torvaianica revealed evidence supporting the landing site of Aeneas, as described in Virgil's ancient Roman epic.
