This beach is easily accessible and we decided to come here for a casual aperitivo where we ordered 5 spitzs.

The beach is lovely and well-maintained, offering chair and umbrella rentals for €35 per day. In addition, there are convenient amenities such as changing rooms and an outdoor shower for rinsing off. Nearby restaurants are easily accessible and there are also garbage and recycling bins provided.

Spiaggia del Gigante is a fantastic spot for a relaxing getaway. I highly recommend it, especially since it's easily accessible. While the waves may have been too high for swimming, I still had a wonderful time. The services provided are of excellent quality, and the beach and water are impeccably maintained.
