A campaign is getting underway in Italy to take back large stretches of the country’s beaches from private bathing clubs, which usually charge to use them. This has been a summer of discontent because despite government efforts, an entire coastline has been monopolized by profiteering bathing clubs. Italy has some of the Europe’s finest beaches, but they are often buried under a mountain of deckchairs and umbrellas. The government says the state owns the shoreline and swimming should be free. |
