Zambrone beach

This beach is simply amazing! The sea is reminiscent of the Caribbean, and although it may not seem like it from the shore, renting a pedal boat from Lido Azzurra will take you to paradise. The structure is well-maintained, affordable, and the lifeguards are incredibly friendly. After overcoming the submerged rocks just a few meters from the shore, you'll find yourself surrounded by a vast expanse of crystal-clear blue water with a depth of approximately 6-7 meters and white sand that seems to stretch on forever. Diving here is like being transported to another world!

This beach is in a stunning location, with a charming sandy cove right next to the campsite. The facilities are simple but sufficient, and there is a pleasant restaurant on the premises. However, the access road is steep and narrow, with a tight railway bridge to pass through. Once we arrived, we had difficulty maneuvering our Hymer van to reach the fresh water. I would only recommend this beach for very small camper vans. It's worth noting that there were Italian vans of a similar size to ours on the site, and the Italian drivers seemed to handle the challenges with ease.
