I so agree! What better way to immerse oneself in Italian life than to spend some time at a beach club?
We've had some fabulous vacations centered around beaches: Martha, the Cilento, Liguria, Senigllia, Salina....(well, the last not so much for the beach, but for the pool!)
Last year took a week in a rural hotel outside Marina di Ragusa....heaven!
Happy to say that I did not visit one museum on that last trip, to Sicily.
And I never go to the beach at home in the US.
I think the OP is having one on us....going in mid June, (so, next week?? week after??) but no hotels booked...(??) and no firm itinerary. I wish I could be so spontaneous! I already have my hotels booked for October.
