Italian by the coast? Centro Puccini (Scuola Leonardo da Vinci) is located on the Italian west coast in the seaside resort of Viareggio. Although the school is open all year round, we would recommend Viareggio for the summer since it is mainly a summer resort.
The school was founded in 1988 and is a small school with a central location just minutes from the beach, restaurants and all amenities. The school is great for persons with disabilities and offers a handy outdoor terrace.

Viareggio |
Centro Giacomo Puccini is located at the Tuscan seaside. The school is open all year round, from January to December. In summer time you may enjoy the famous “Versilia” Riviera, studying Italian in the vibrant seaside
city of Viareggio. Viareggio is one of the most famous and traditional seaside resorts in Tuscany. The wide, endless beaches, the excellent cuisine and the exciting night-life with its well-known "Versilian" discos, all
contribute to make Viareggio a favorite holiday resort.
A visit to Viareggio means meeting Italians and enjoying the seafood specialities of Tuscany. Viareggio is the ideal holiday resort for all who love sunshine, the sea and enjoying themselves. In spring and autumn there are many beautiful places to visit, such as Pisa (at 10 Km distance from Viareggio), the Island of Elba, the “Cinque Terre”, the Apuan Alpes, Florence, Siena, Lucca: visit these unique places outside the mass tourism period. Enjoy Viareggio walking and admiring its Liberty period architecture.
You will find a very warm atmosphere at the school and you will communicate in a friendly personal manner with faculty and staff. In winter the climate is still warm. For those who like winter sports you have the possibility of skiing in the nearby Apennine Mountains.
