One of the Adriatic Coast's most beautiful beaches, this stunner sits below the white cliffs that arc along the water below Sirolo. It is truly a panoramic setting with the shades of clean blue water contrasting with the white stone of the cliff. On top, the verdant green of the Mediterranean brush and trees that extend over Mount Conero.

The beach is reached by a foot path or by shuttle bus from Sirolo. Descend to the waterfront and enter the kind of magical seaside world you've always imagined - an arch of beach with sand and pebbles, water so clear you can see the fish, and views over the sea and the surrounding undulating landscape. There are a couple of private beach concessions as well as public free beach to enjoy. Two restaurants/snack bars provide refreshment, or you can pack a picnic to enjoy under your umbrella.

The cliff and Monte Conero block out the sun in the afternoon, so arrive in the morning for the best solar exposure. The shuttle bus from Sirolo departs every 30 minutes; cost is 1€ if you buy the ticket from a tabaccheria or newsstand; €1.50 if you buy on board.
