We were staying just a 5-minute walk away from this beach, and we ended up coming here every day for a swim. Although the beach had a few rocks, it was still enjoyable, although it would have been helpful to have some swimming shoes or slippers. The water was crystal clear, and we even saw some fish swimming around in the shallow areas. Just be careful of the sea urchins that can be found under the 'caves' on the right-hand side of the beach. We miss this place so much!

That place is my favorite one yet. It has a secluded and cozy feel, with incredible waves and stunning blue water. Although it's a bit of a walk to get there, it's definitely worth it. Plus, it's open to the public with free entry.

The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Ponte dei Lapilli beach (Bari) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Ponte dei Lapilli beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
