Torre Ruffa beach

We had a wonderful stay in August. The beach was absolutely stunning, with crystal clear water and no annoying large stones or rocks like other beaches in the area. The hotel staff was excellent, very kind, friendly, and accommodating. From the reception staff to the restaurant waiters, they were always ready to fulfill customer requests. The cuisine was also top-notch, with delicious regional dishes and fresh fish served daily. The animation team was not overly intrusive and the young staff members were full of energy. The only downside, which is not specific to the hotel but rather the entire stretch of coast, is the lack of a traditional seafront promenade due to the slightly overhanging nature of the area. Other than that, everything was excellent.

This beach is definitely a must-visit! For a mere 3 euros, you can take a short hike of 10-15 minutes to reach the grotto. Although the journey may require some effort, the breathtaking view from the top is definitely worth it. Although the local authorities have become stricter recently, prohibiting the use of fins, swimming under the arch, and bringing towels, don't let that stop you from experiencing the beauty of this place. If you take the left path, you can even discover a mini arch without any interruptions. So, don't let anyone bring you down and make sure to visit this amazing spot!
