About

Spiaggia della Vedova is located on the Adriatic Sea and it is in the 22th place out of 26 beaches in the Ancona region 3.6 km away from its center, the city of Ancona. It is one of the beaches of Nave settlement, just 0.6 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, among the mountains, surrounded by the cliffs.

It is a spacious coastline with crystal blue water and light pebble, so it is recommended to wear special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

Spiaggia della Vedova coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

To get to the beach, you need to walk along a mountain trail about 500m long.

7 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Spiaggia del Passetto, which has a rating of 8.4.

Spiaggia della Vedova (Ancona) is located outside the Nave settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

6 Pleasant

The beach at the bottom doesn’t worth the unsafe path to reach it: slippery rocks in the shade. Anyway the view is spectacular and it is a good exercise go up the path.

10 Exceptional

Wild beach. You can get there via a fairly challenging path, especially the climb up. Once you arrive, you walk along a bit of a road, between large rocks on the beach. You arrive at a little crowded pebble beach, there were 8 of us on a Tuesday in August, here you can pitch an umbrella/tent and finally dive into the beautiful Conero sea. There are various caveroli, all super kind and helpful!

4 Frustrating

Quiet beach, far from the chaos of nightlife. Excellent if you are looking for an isolated place. All in all nothing special, not very clean (it's not looked after), there's a bit of junk brought up from the sea, lots of algae and mucilage. The view to get there is beautiful (you go down the cliff), but it's not a beach, it's a hideout. It didn't meet our needs Useful information: - walk to get to the beach not exactly easy and short (very steep, time around 20-30 minutes), sneakers necessary - pebble beach, bringing rubber shoes is advisable - in times of covid it was not necessary to book - there is no beach infrastructure

6 Pleasant

The road is beautiful with spectacular views of paradise😍: it starts with a narrow entrance between 2 houses😯. And it continues with some steps, and ramps, it is quite long. You have to be very careful not to slip. To access the beach you have to cross wet and moldy stones, which is very difficult. If not, you access the rocky part... where it is not comfortable to swim or stay: rocks with points.

8 Very good

The beach is worth it, but to get there you have to go down a long, steep path and many steps... not suitable for families with luggage in tow!! You take the path by parking the car in a lay-by on the road, then you find it between two houses, a little hidden but I recommend asking at the place nearby to be sure. Have a nice walk!!!!

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Spiaggia della Vedova (Ancona) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. 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 Spiaggia della Vedova (Ancona) 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 Spiaggia della Vedova 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.
