Rocky, not sandy

This is a rocky urban bathing access rather than a traditional sandy beach.

Water shoes

Recommended for access and submerged rock.

Depth

We do not describe it as shallow for long distances; Marina della Torre suits confident swimmers better.

With children

For small children and non-swimmers, Botte is generally easier.

Snorkelling

Rock and clear water can make the seabed interesting.

When

Only in calm sea and close to safe access points.

No cliff jumping

The historic page highlighted jumps.

Safety

Depth and submerged obstacles are not guaranteed.

Families

Can suit families with older children who swim well, but not our first choice for toddlers.

Alternative

Consider the Botte area.
