The Latina shore at Prato di Coppola Wildfire Risk: Should I Travel?

Fire reached houses behind the Lido di Latina on 6 August and a firefighting helicopter was working over the coast road. Nothing has been reported closed.

Short answer: A fire burned through scrub, greenhouses and a small wood off via Casilina Sud at the Lido di Latina on 6 August, close to the former Fogliano campsite, and reached a group of small houses. Radio Luna reported volunteers from the Passo Genovese civil protection group and two more Latina civil protection squads on the ground with a fire service tanker and a firefighting helicopter dropping water. Latina News reported the same afternoon that the fire ran along the shore near Borgo Sabotino, between the Strada Litoranea and via Casilina, close to the marina, pushed by a strong wind towards housing, with the forestry carabinieri of Latina opening enquiries because arson was suspected. Neither report records an evacuation or a road closure, and none has been announced since.
