The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Punta scrugli beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., 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.

User reviews
"The beach can be conveniently accessed by car and a parking lot with roughly twenty spots is situated nearby. Although the water was less clear than usual due to rough seas today, the beach and sea were both pristine and devoid of crowds. The rocky portion of the beach is a delightful spot to relax or for young children to play in a sheltered area away from chilly currents."
Alessio Rinaldi.
"To reach this stunning seaside spot, take the scenic coastal route from Vibo Marina to Tropea. Just before Punta Safo, you'll find a convenient parking area that's only 150 meters away from the beach and costs just 5 euros per day. While there are no amenities available, the crystal-clear waters and pristine sands make for an idyllic day trip. Plus, the location is sheltered..."
