Beach overall scores
Spiaggia dei Gabbiani (Ancona) region (Mount Conero sub-region) is located outside the Portonovo 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 and the correct question is not how to get to Spiaggia dei Gabbiani, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.
User reviews
"The beach is really lovely! My only criticism is that the water could have been clearer, but that's probably due to the number of motor boats parked nearby. On the bright side, the beach is composed of charming white pebbles and there's a cliff that looks like the one on Zakynthos island."
Alberto Sassoncini
"The beach is absolutely gorgeous with its pebbles and small white stones, but it's only accessible by sea. Additionally, it's recommended to book a canoe from Conero Style in Portonovo well in advance if you plan on visiting."
