Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Costa dei Barbari (Friuli Venezia Giulia) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. 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 Costa dei Barbari (Friuli Venezia Giulia) 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. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Costa dei Barbari for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The beach is a bit challenging to reach, but once you get there, you'll be rewarded with a beautiful view and serene atmosphere. The light pebbles on the shore add to the unique charm of this beach, making it a great spot for a peaceful day by the water.

Although the beach may suffice for a quick dip, I wouldn't recommend spending a whole vacation there. It's advisable to wear shoes when entering the water. However, the water is crystal clear and refreshing.

I have never come across a beach quite like this before. The journey to reach it was quite challenging, requiring a steep ascent of almost 300 meters from the parking area. Despite the arduous climb, the beach was well worth the effort.

The coastline is absolutely stunning with breathtaking views that will leave you in awe. However, it's important to note that accessing the seashore by car might prove to be a bit difficult as most of the roads leading to it are private. But don't let that discourage you, as the walk down is worth it and adds to the overall experience of being surrounded by nature.

Accessing the beach is a bit of a trek, starting from the main road and continuing with a hike down a steep hill through the woods. The trail leading to the beach is a bit challenging, especially during the hot summer months, and may take up to 20 minutes to reach. However, the effort is well worth it as the beach is absolutely breathtaking. If you don't mind breaking a sweat, this beach is a must-visit destination. It's important to note that this hike is not recommended for individuals with disabilities. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted with stunning views that make the journey all the more worthwhile.
