Quite nicely arranged, fairly clean place and surprisingly not crowded (perhaps because it was very windy)

The beach is beautiful, the sea is clean. The beach is clean in the morning, very dirty in the afternoon. Italians are a very loud people, so you won't have peace. There is no shade until 3-4 in the afternoon. Buy an umbrella. Towels will be dirty after 15 minutes. There are no cabins on the beach to change clothes. No wc. There are no outside showers to take a shower. City beach, full of people, but beautiful 🥰

Lovely little beach right by the old town. The water is clearest in the morning in summer and a swim here is the perfect way to start your day if staying nearby. Park up and be a rock lobster if you want to catch some rays later on. Old mate selling fruit by the stairs is an honest vendor so make sure you give him a visit. The lady around the corner selling T/A aperol spritzes is a legend.
