Tennis: a passion that goes beyond summer
Life in Forte dei Marmi isn’t all about the sea. Tennis is one of the most popular sports here – especially in summer, when a match, a lesson, or a relaxed rally with friends offers a refreshing break from the beach.
Forte dei Marmi is the ideal place to train and play, with seven tennis clubs offering a wide range of courts, from hard courts to the iconic red clay. Some clubs – such as Tennis Europa, Tennis Milano, Tennis Roma, and Tennis San Francesco – operate seasonally and are perfect for the summer months, while others remain open year-round, including indoor courts for all-weather play.
Many tennis clubs provide private and group lessons, as well as programs tailored for children, adult beginners, and advanced players looking to refine their game. It’s a rich and well-structured offering that reflects how deeply rooted tennis has always been in Versilia’s sporting life.
And for aficionados and newcomers alike, padel courts are also available. This fast-growing doubles sport blends elements of traditional tennis with a smaller court and lively rebounds off the walls – features that have turned padel into a true phenomenon in recent years.
