A rocky bathing stretch at Marina di Novaglie beside the old harbour and watchtower remains.
The historic word “Spiaggia” may suggest sand, but this is mainly rock. The guide treats it as a coastal bathing sector near the harbour and old tower, separate from the boat channel.
Marina di Novaglie is a coast of rock, inlets and a small harbour cut into an old quarry.
Do not expect a sandy beach.
The municipality recalls Novaglie as Alessano’s old maritime outlet and notes old watchtower remains.
Harbour and tower explain the historic name.
