I went to Spiaggetta dell'Arco in the middle of September on a weekday. The beach is easily accessible, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing day by the water.

The beach is a serene and peaceful spot during the early morning hours, but as the day progresses and it approaches 10am, it tends to get quite crowded. However, one thing that remains constant throughout the day is the crystal clear water.

The beach is stunning and offers easy accessibility. It's perfect for swimming and jumping from the arc. Although it may be on the small side, it's still a lovely spot to enjoy.
