Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Riace Marina beach (Reggio di Calabria) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun.

4 Frustrating

The beach experience was quite enjoyable in terms of the concept. It offered a sense of complete liberation in the midst of nowhere, right on the beach. The shaded areas and outdoor showers were a great addition. The hot water was free and the bar and restaurant were not evaluated. However, the bathrooms were old and not in good working condition. It required a lot of patience and tolerance to use them. We paid 30 euros for a van with two adults and two kids on the first of August, which felt like a blunder.

During our stay in late May, we were warmly greeted by the owner at Camping Koku and given the freedom to select our own pitch. It is worth noting that ant spray is a must-have item. The campsite is situated right on the vast beach, which is best enjoyed with bathing shoes. Although the sanitary facilities are not modern, they are fully functional. What's more, the pitch fee was incredibly reasonable during the low season. If you're looking for a scrumptious pizza, head 50 meters to the right along the beach to Imbarcadero.

A mesmerizing spot nestled amidst the beauty of nature, where one can relish a serene and tranquil ambiance. The hospitable owners leave no stone unturned to cater to every requirement and guarantee an unforgettable experience. The restaurant serves delectable homemade cuisine that is sure to tantalize your taste buds. In a nutshell, it's no surprise that I refer to this place as my haven!

The beach offers a straightforward layout that sits right on the edge of the sea. Even in the peak of August, the beach remains uncrowded, offering ample space to bask in the sun and enjoy the stunning waters. The sea itself is a wonder to behold, with crystal-clear waters that invite visitors to take a dip. While the supermarket is not within walking distance, it is easily reachable by bicycle along the main road. This location is perfect for those seeking a peaceful vacation away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The campsite also features a restaurant that serves up delectable dishes sure to satisfy any palate.

6 Pleasant

This serene location is situated right on the sandy and rocky beach, with a stunning and inviting sea that is both warm and beautiful. The sunsets are truly breathtaking and provide the perfect backdrop for those seeking a peaceful and calming experience. The campsite is well-equipped with top-notch amenities, including fantastic lighting systems, and offers unlimited electricity and hot water as part of the package. I would definitely choose to stay here again. The Kokus restaurant is a must-visit, offering exceptional and delicious pizza at reasonable prices. The managers are incredibly friendly and welcoming, ensuring a pleasant and enjoyable stay for all.
