The beach prices are quite steep, with two fries costing 8 euros.

Nice beach, but the prices are a bit steep in comparison to what you get.

For those who enjoy the ruggedness of cliffs, this beach is a must-visit. Additionally, it should be noted that the beach has a concrete covering.

The beach at Lido, which is located near Castro Marina, is well-maintained and enjoyable. It's worth noting that the beach has a concrete cover, which may or may not be to everyone's liking.

10 Exceptional

The beach is impeccably maintained and peaceful, providing a serene atmosphere to unwind. The stunning ocean view adds to the overall experience. For a reasonable fee of 30€, two comfortable sunbeds with an umbrella can be rented for the entire day, and a complimentary shower is available. Access to the sea is made easy with a wooden walkway. Additionally, a lovely cove called dell'acquaviva is just a short 2-minute walk away. The only downside is that the restaurant bar prices are slightly steep.
