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 Spiaggia della Grotta Verde (Lecce) 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 Spiaggia della Grotta Verde 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 an absolute marvel with a stunningly beautiful cave that boasts of crystal clear turquoise water. The beach is spacious and flat, providing ample room for visitors to relax and unwind. However, if you're in the mood for some shade, you can always find a beach umbrella nestled in the rocks outside of the pre-made holes. There's also a cliff nearby that you can easily reach by foot, perfect for those who want to take a dive into the refreshing water. The beach also has a big toll parking area right next to it, complete with a bar and a public freshwater tap.

The beach is an awe-inspiring destination to explore, albeit a bustling one. The cave is a must-visit attraction that will leave you in awe. Despite the crowds, the natural beauty of the beach is worth the visit.

Swimming in the emerald waters of the cave is an unparalleled experience that should not be overlooked. It is truly one of the most memorable experiences you could hope for.

It was quite challenging to set up an umbrella on the beach as it was rocky. Additionally, the cave was smaller than expected. Unfortunately, during my visit, the colors of the surroundings did not match those depicted in some of the pictures.
