Beaches and places in Marina di Andrano

The page lists 7 public, natural or historic places documented for this locality.

Grotta Verde

Grotta Verde

An emerald-green sea cave on the rocky coast of Marina di Andrano. The car park is close, but reaching the most striking inner section involves rock, water, confident swimming and suitable sea conditions.

 Spiaggia il Fiume

Spiaggia il Fiume

One of Marina della Torre’s main bathing points in Marina di Andrano, named Il Fiume because a freshwater spring reaches the sea here.

 Lungomare delle Agavi

Lungomare delle Agavi

The pedestrian coastal promenade linking La Botte with Grotta Verde along Marina di Andrano’s Adriatic rocky shoreline.

 Grotta della Botte

Grotta della Botte

A small cave in the La Botte area of Marina di Andrano on Salento’s Adriatic coast, marked by a freshwater spring reaching the sea.

 Spiaggia della Botte

Spiaggia della Botte

La Botte is not a sandy beach: it is a rocky Marina di Andrano sea-access area with small coves and water that becomes deeper fairly quickly. It is also important for accessibility through the Swim Liberi di Nuotare experience, whose current seasonal operation should be checked.

 Porticciolo della Botte

Porticciolo della Botte

A small harbour tucked into Marina di Andrano's rocky coast, used by fishing and leisure craft. It is a characterful place to see, but it must be distinguished from nearby Spiaggia della Botte and from areas actually intended for bathing.

Torre Porto di Ripa

The restored base of a large circular coastal watchtower in Marina di Andrano, documented in use by 1569 and once linked visually with Torre del Sasso and Torre Capo Lupo.
