This public beach is absolutely stunning. It is divided into two sections that are situated close to each other. The sandy section is perfect for kids as the water is not too deep. On the other side, there is a section made of white polished stones. Although it may not be as comfortable for your back and bottom, the upside is that it is less crowded, the water is deeper, and it is much cleaner. If you enjoy snorkeling, you'll have a great time here because there are large stones located 100 meters from the coast. These stones not only protect the beach from waves but also attract a variety of fish.
Parking is available on the nearby streets at a very reasonable price. It costs 0.5 EUR per hour, 2.5 EUR for 6 hours, or 4 EUR for the entire day. Even when we visited during scorching temperatures of +38C, we were still able to find plenty of free parking spots for our car.
Don't forget to bring your beach umbrella and make the most of this beautiful beach instead of opting for the overpriced private beaches in the surrounding area.

This is a great spot to cool off on a scorching summer day when you're leaving Livorno. The rocky coastline is stunning, but make sure you have sturdy footwear for the climb up and down. There's a wooden staircase that leads from the road to the top of the rocks. It's advisable to wear water shoes.
