During peak season, the beach can be quite packed, but that shouldn't deter you from experiencing its beauty. As someone who has been fortunate enough to visit many breathtaking beaches in the Philippines, I can confidently say that this particular one stands out from the rest. It's definitely worth adding to your itinerary if you ever find yourself in Italy.

The beach is truly breathtaking! The scenery is stunning, especially when viewed from above. To access the beach, one must proceed forward and descend through a tunnel that leads down to the shore. Alternatively, there is a grand staircase that leads to a level platform near the water, which offers an equally magnificent vista.

The beach is quite popular, which is understandable given its enchanting allure. Numerous excellent eateries and delis are scattered throughout the area, making it easy to grab a bite to eat before continuing to discover the city's beauty. Even if swimming isn't your thing, it's still worth stopping by, just as we did.

Oh, what a miraculous sight! Whether you choose to descend via stairs or stroll down the slopes, this beach is a true gem. If you've got the right footwear, you can handle the cobbled incline with ease, but if not, no worries - the stairs are always an option. The water is crystal clear and absolutely stunning. Just be aware that this beach is filled with pebbles, so leave your sandcastle building tools at home.

10 Exceptional

The beach is absolutely stunning and a truly wonderful site to behold. It's important to wear comfortable shoes as the walk can be challenging and the stones can be slippery at times. Despite its beauty, the beach is not very crowded. It has a unique charm that reminds me of Spain, but it is distinctly different. If you find yourself in Italy, this is definitely a place worth visiting.
