The beach is designated as a Blue Flag beach, indicating that it is very clean and the water is very nice, but it is also on the expensive side. To rent an umbrella and two sofa chairs, it costs 50 Euro, which is quite steep. However, it is necessary to rent at least an umbrella and two chairs, although basic chairs are available for a lower price. The beach is divided into three sections, one of which is where the photo was taken. This section has a protected area where visitors can go under a rock formation and feel the cool spring waters that flow down from the Amalfi coastline. The water is crystal clear, perfect, and warm. The other two sections of the beach are larger, with one being rocky and the other more sandy. The food service is good, and we had reasonable paninis for 6 Euro, as well as some drinks. Smoking is not allowed on the beach, which is a nice change from the pervasive cigarette smoke throughout Italy. To secure the best spots, it's best to arrive early, and while parking is available, it can be difficult to find as is the case in much of the region.
