Beach description
An impressive number of caves and underwater grottoes, created by the waves in the coastal cliffs, will provide ample opportunities for exploration. Right from here, from a 20-meter height, you can dive into the clear water, which clearly reflects the rocky bottom. Swimming and snorkeling in such water will bring true pleasure, as well as sunbathing at the pier protected from the winds, next to the colorful fishing boats. By choosing a private area of the beach, you will get access to sun loungers, umbrellas and a variety of swimming facilities such as canoeing or pedalo.
Restaurants surrounding the beach – restaurants, bars, pizzerias – will captivate guests with mouth-watering fish and vegetable dishes and tonic drinks. Ample parking will leave a good impression. The only drawback is the overcrowding of the beach during the peak season, which can be easily avoided by choosing late spring or early autumn for vacation.
When is it better to go
In terms of climate, the period from May to October is the most favorable for visiting Italy. The air and water temperature becomes ideal for a classic beach holiday, followed by a trip to the coast of Italy. However, it is necessary to remember that a long summer with the scorching sun, warm sea and pleasant sea breeze attracts crowds of tourists.
