Spiaggia Alimini

This beach is absolutely stunning! The coastline is crystal clear and so beautiful. I would love to make it a yearly destination. 😍

Alimini beach
8 Elias Kostopoulos

This beach is truly breathtaking, boasting crystal clear waters and a serene pine forest that provides a welcome respite from the sun. Whether you're in search of a luxurious bed and umbrella or simply want to lay out your towel, there are ample options available. You'll find a spacious area to relax and soak up the sun, with numerous bars and eateries nearby where you can indulge in a refreshing ice cream or a satisfying lunch. This is a truly remarkable destination that should not be missed if you happen to be in the vicinity.

Spiaggia Baia dei Turchi
10 Aria Vasilescu

To reach the beach, a pleasant one-kilometer stroll from the parking area is required, but don't let that deter you. It's worth every step. While some individuals may ask for a fee of 5 to 7 Euros for parking, we discovered that parking alongside the road was acceptable, according to the locals we consulted. As a result, you can save that money for other activities. The beach itself is stunning, with crystal-clear water. We visited in the evening, so it wasn't too crowded, but I suspect it may become busier on sunny weekends. Watching the sunrise at this location could be a breathtaking experience.

Spiaggia Torre dell'Orso

The beach was great with lovely sand and a pleasant atmosphere. However, due to the strong winds, we couldn't use our umbrella, but it was only a short 100 meter walk away. It had a typical Italian feel with many Italians soaking up the sun. It was amusing to observe. Just be aware that there was an additional fee for the use of the shower facilities.

When visiting this beach, it's important to note that non-locals may not have access to the front line umbrellas, even if they appear to be unoccupied. It's a bit disappointing to be charged 25 euros for shade during the pre-season, and it can feel like a form of discrimination. The staff took some time to explain the reasoning behind this policy, using the assistance of Google Translate.
