Nice
-
but
overcrowded
We
stayed
in
Nicotera
not
too
far
away
and
came
here
for
a
daytrip.
We
didn't
stay
that
long
in
the
end
-
simply
because
it
was
too
crowded.
But
it
is
indeed
a
beautiful
beach
with
stunning
colors.
Colors
you
might
expect
to
see
in
the
Caribbean.
From
the
blue
blue
to
azure
and
turquoise.
Both
the
beach
itself
and
the
water
are
spotless
clean.
Too
bad
you
won't
see
much
of
the
sand
due
to
the
number
of
visitors.
There
are
private
sections
where
you
can
bring
your
own
umbrella
and
chairs
and
some
bars/resorts
where
you
can
rent
some.
Some
locals
even
brought
their
dogs,
which
I
think
was
nice,
but
officially
it's
not
legal.
The
beach
is
stunning
by
itself,
but
backed
with
the
amazing
Santuario
di
Santa
Maria
dell'Isola
it's
a
really
unique
sight
that
has
to
be
seen
if
you
are
in
Tropea
or
anywhere
close.
A
real
stunner!
Parking
is
a
bit
of
a
problem
if
you
hit
high
season.
There's
street
parking
and
a
big
parking
lot
nearby
(some
blue
zones
even
and
the
fee
for
the
parking
lot
is
fair).
It's
best
just
to
wait
in
your
car
instead
of
driving
around.
There
are
always
some
people
leaving,
just
be
patient.
As
fun
and
as
beautiful
this
beach
is/was,
we
didn't
stay
long...cause
of
the
immense
crowd.
We
soon
headed
back
to
our
beloved
Nicotera
Marina.
The
water
there
is
as
clean
as
it
is
here.
The
beach
is
wider
and
clean
as
well.
Ok,
the
water
doesn't
have
the
same
amazing
caribbean
colors,
but
still
nice
and
deep
blue.
And
the
best
part
about
it:
Only
a
handful
of
people....even
in
high
season....I
kid
you
not.
Maybe
I
shouldn't
have
even
mentioned
it.
'cause
it's
still
a
bit
of
a
secret.
Two
beach
chairs
and
an
umbrella
set
you
back
only
8
Euros....for
the
whole
day.
