Nestled just a stone's throw away from Porto San Vito lies a stunning public beach that boasts a unique blend of sandy and rocky terrain, providing visitors with the freedom to take their pick. As you make your way down a narrow country lane, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the entrance. Once there, you'll be greeted by the tranquil sound of lapping waves and crystal-clear waters that glisten in the sun. It's the perfect spot to unwind and soak up the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape.

The beach is quite small and tends to get crowded. It has a mix of sand and rocks, but if you're looking for a peaceful spot to unwind, this may not be the best choice. Additionally, the water tends to get murky as the day goes on. On the bright side, parking is free.

The oceanfront restaurant is absolutely adorable and the staff is incredibly friendly. The stunning views of the ocean only add to the charm. Although I didn't have a meal, the coffee was superb!
