User reviews
"The beach in Ortigia and its surrounding area is a one-of-a-kind and pleasant spot for swimming. However, it tends to get quite crowded with rocks during the warmer months. Despite that, it's still worth checking out if you happen to be in the heat. The sunbathing area on the rocks and the water were also relatively clean, which is quite uncommon for beaches in Italy/Sicily."
Eddy
"If you happen to be in Ortigia, this beach is a great place for swimming and sunbathing. The water is incredibly clear, and you can enjoy a lovely view of Ortigia from the rocks."

It is difficult to think of any entertainment and activities when you are on the beach. To swim, to sunbathe, to drink a couple of cocktails, again to swim and again to sunbathe, the variety usually is very limited. But on Spiaggia Diana nel Forte you can test yourself in such an activity as water jumping. It's fun and it's scary, the rest you have to experience on your own.
In most cases, the question What to do on Spiaggia Diana nel Forte implies the presence of any excursions or attractions near the beach. Of course in this area there are lots of places to go besides the beach. There are historical, entertainment and even gastronomic tours offered by local guides. More information is better to clarify directly on the spot.

First of all Spiaggia Diana nel Forte (Siracusa) 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 Diana nel Forte for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing.
