Florence to Rome Last Day
 
We will be driving back to FCO from Florence to stay overnight before our flight home the next morning. We would appreciate suggestions for things to do and see on the trip. We will have seen Siena already. We can go a long the coast or more central.

I did a similar thing this summer. We spent a lovely day at the beach north of Rome. We rented an umbrella and beach chairs at a local beach club. Clean beach, clean water.

Put these coordinates into maps.google.com and you'll see the exact location. Click on satellite view and you can see the colored beach umbrellas.

Not another American (or other English speaking) tourist in site - very much a local Italian beach. Small snack bar, bathrooms, etc right there.

Have you been to Ostia Antica? It is near the airport, a fascinating ancient port city
