The Province of Grosseto is located in the southern part of Tuscany, Italy, overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. It borders the provinces of Livorno and Siena to the north, the provinces of Siena and Viterbo (Lazio) to the east, and the province of Viterbo to the south.

The inhabitants of the city of Grosseto are called "Grossetani". For the inhabitants of the province, the term "Maremmani" is often used, referring to the Grosseto Maremma, the historical and geographical region that characterizes it.

The Province of Grosseto is made up of 28 municipalities, each with its own historical, cultural, and scenic peculiarities.
