A seaside town, it has been known since antiquity for being a natural port, and as evidence of this, the ancient name "Vadum" (landing place, ford). Described by authors such as Cicero and Pliny, it became known as the port of Volterra and, later, its inlet was also an excellent refuge for Saracen pirates. The "secche di Vada" are known to have caused the sinking of many Roman ships, leaving behind some of the most important evidence of trade in the Greco-Roman world. Many artifacts such as amphorae, terracotta vases, and worked marbles can still be found on the shallow seabed. The place is also known for the landing of Giuseppe Garibaldi in 1867, after his imprisonment on Caprera. The oldest monument in the city is the Tower of Vada, built by the Pisans around 1400, which was used as a lighthouse and is now the exhibition venue for the education laboratory. The long free beach (5 km) offers many entertainments ranging from underwater fishing to surfing, continuing with sailing schools, skateboarding, tennis courts, and beach volleyball. The holiday area extends from Rada del Saraceno, as the Etruscan Coast was called, to the pine forests of Pietrabianca and from the residential area Molino a Fuoco to Mezzanta. In 1998/1999/2000, this beach, along with Castiglioncello, was awarded the blue flag.
