Bagno Marino La Lanterna

A distinctive pebble beach with designated areas for women and men. I felt very secure taking a nap on the beach after a long walk.

A unique spot dating back to the time of Maria Theresa. While it might not appeal to everyone, it's worth noting that it's not the only beach in Trieste, so if it doesn't suit your taste, there are other options available. There's a small entrance fee (around €1.10). The beach features a kiosk, benches, and chairs. Since it's a pebbled beach, I recommend bringing water shoes to avoid discomfort. I'm not entirely sure where families or single parents with children would go in this setting. I hope they aren't restricted to the women's section, as I personally find the noise from children quite bothersome. Additionally, Italy faces challenges with non-Europeans who may not be familiar with local customs. It's not uncommon to see fully clothed or veiled women at the beach, even entering the sea this way, which I find unappealing. It's unfortunate that Europeans sometimes feel pressured to adapt to foreign customs in their own countries.

Lovely beach! First, make sure to bring flip flops 🩴 or water shoes because the beach is covered in pebbles, which can be tough to walk on. Second, be aware that the beach is divided into separate areas for men and women. Lastly, there are no lockers available, so it's best to bring only essential valuables. Enjoy your time! 🤩

For just 1€, this is the most affordable paid beach in Trieste. The beach is divided into sections, and the women's area tends to be overcrowded since children usually accompany their mothers. It's an excellent spot for families with young kids because the enclosed area ensures they can't wander off to the street. The beach also features a bar, bathrooms, shaded areas, and sunny spots.

When we visited in mid-August, the entrance fee was 1€ per person. The beach isn't very large, so it can become crowded. However, our experience was very pleasant as there weren't too many people. The sea is beautiful and crystal clear. The entire area is clean, and the lifeguards make you feel very safe regarding your belongings and well-being. There is a small snack store where you can purchase beverages, hot and cold food, and other snacks at reasonable prices. Note that there are separate areas for men and women (and all children).
