Carrara is situated in a basin amidst olives at the foot of the Apuan Alps; it developed in an area that was already famous for its marble in ancient times. Leaving the city in the direction of the sea, you come to Marina di Carrara on the northernmost point of the Tuscan coast. It is a beach resort with a wide sandy beach. There is also a mercantile port here, constructed in the 19th century for the export of marble.
