The beach is quite lovely, albeit a bit crowded. Unfortunately, there is some litter on the sand, despite the presence of numerous trash bins. However, the water is refreshing and clear, making it a great spot for a dip.

Behold, a charming and petite beach that boasts of nothing but the most exquisite blue waters that you have ever laid your eyes upon. The only catch is that it is rather diminutive and there are hardly any sandy shores to sprawl on. Nevertheless, it's a spot that is worth checking out, especially if you're in the mood for a brief escapade.

The beach is a cozy spot that tends to get crowded on weekends. The surrounding area has a few beverage establishments. The scenery is stunning and charming. The water is crystal clear and inviting. Although some areas may have rocky terrain, there is also an abundance of sandy spots to enjoy.

Nestled in a cozy corner, lies a quaint little beach that comes alive on weekends with the hustle and bustle of visitors. A few shops dot the area, offering refreshing beverages and light bites to keep you fuelled for your day of fun in the sun. The beach is a sight to behold, with its pristine sands and breathtaking views. The crystal-clear waters beckon you to take a dip, and the occasional rocky patches add to the adventure. All in all, a perfect spot to soak up some sun and make unforgettable memories.

Adequate shoreline can be found at any of the coastal clubs. However, the public beach, although accessible without cost, is not particularly alluring due to the overwhelming crowds and overall uncleanliness of the sand. Alternatively, Fountane Bianchi or the rocky Ognina beach are exceptional choices in comparison.
