Explore Rome's surroundings by going to Acqua e Sale - Stabilimento Balneare (in Maccarese), Moai Beach (in Passo Oscuro) and Point Break (in Fregene). There's lots more to do: take in the architecture and atmosphere at St. Peter's Basilica, take in nature's colorful creations at Villa d'Este, explore the world behind art at Sistine Chapel, and don't miss a visit to Spanish Steps.
