Getting there and access
Approach is on trails and rocky ground. Wear suitable footwear and keep well back from the edge.
If an access point is closed or altered, do not improvise shortcuts: use authorised routes only.
A deep inlet and natural channel between Tricase Porto and Marina Serra. The municipality classifies it as an episodic watercourse in a protected area and records geomorphological hazards along the coast: it is mainly a place to view and explore cautiously.
Practical information checked for access, setting, safety and services. The municipal plan records risks from rock falls, detachments and karst cavities along this coast; therefore we remove any encouragement of improvised jumps or descents and do not assume bathing is suitable.

Sea cliff and rocky coast with deep water and irregular seabed. Waves and wet rock greatly increase risk.
Before moving away from shore, identify a safe exit point and do not enter if waves or current exceed your ability.
Not a first choice for small children: rock, depth, paths or sea access require experience and constant supervision.
Before planning the day, consider access, distance from services, crowding and how easy it will be to get back.
No dedicated parking is guaranteed. Park only in authorised spaces and expect summer pressure.
Do not leave valuables visible in the car and do not occupy verges, access points or unauthorised spaces.
Trails, rocks or sea access make the place unsuitable for wheelchairs, pushchairs and reduced mobility.
If you have specific mobility needs, check before leaving whether the route is genuinely usable that day.
Keep back from the edge and avoid improvised descents or jumps. Wet rock and wind make the headland more hazardous.
If signs or barriers on site are more restrictive than this guide, the instructions on site always take precedence.

Check the date of the notice: a temporary measure should not be interpreted as a permanent rule.
Best for experienced walkers and lovers of cliffs and coastal scenery.
Before deciding, pay particular attention to the access and safety cards, as they can completely change the experience.
Less suitable for small children, non-swimmers, rough sea or anyone expecting a fully serviced and effortless beach day.
If one of these limitations is decisive for you, compare a nearby location before setting off.
Grippy footwear, water, hat and sun protection.
Keep your phone and documents in a waterproof case and carry your gear in a compact backpack.
