When in Rome, Italy during the summer months temperature could be very hot and you may need a pause between visiting the Colosseum ,the Vatican and the innumerable monuments and travel attractions that the eternal city offers . You’ll probably miss a beach with clean waters to get the sun, swim and relax yourself. As Roman, I can definitely say that the nearest beach destinations around Rome like Ostia and Fregene are not so clean but if you have a car or even better a scooter , there are many amazing and clean sand beaches like in Sperlonga and Gaeta that can be reached within 2 hours driving. This is a preview of A lovely day trip to the beaches around Rome.
