Morciano di Leuca - all beaches

This cove is perfect for a few hours of relaxation by the sea. It's a shame that the seabed is filled with stones and rocks, so make sure to bring appropriate footwear! The sea is absolutely stunning and crystal clear. However, it's important to note that there is no sandy beach, only stones and a concrete slide for boats.

The parking is conveniently located and reasonably priced. However, beachgoers are required to rent a deckchair as placing towels directly on the sand is not permitted and the rental fees are quite steep. The beach tends to be quite busy but offers a sandy shoreline and clean water, although the color of the water is not a vibrant blue.

The beach is undeniably stunning, but unfortunately, most of it is occupied by the paid umbrella sections, which are placed very close to each other. However, what caught my attention was the car shower located at the parking exit, which is free of charge, while the human shower costs €1 per use. Additionally, there seemed to be some kind of commotion happening nearby.

The beach is pleasant, and the town is charming. The majority of the locals are friendly, although there are occasional uncomfortable stares. Unfortunately, the noise level can be quite high if you stay in a place near the main road, making it difficult to put young children to bed before 1 am.

The beach experience was truly delightful. Giovanni, the proprietor, exuded a remarkable level of hospitality. The rates were very reasonable and the showers were complimentary, without the need for any tokens. We couldn't agree more with Giovanni's assessment of the beach. What was intended to be a one-day visit turned into a three-day stay, thanks to the wonderful atmosphere.

We spent an amazing day at this beach, despite the language barrier with the staff. With my basic Italian and some gestures, we managed to communicate effectively. The beach beds and the bar/restaurant were the highlight of the entire stretch of beach. The prices for the beds were reasonable, with €27 for the front row, €24 for the second row, and €20 for the third row. The lunch menu was impressive, with a variety of salads, sandwiches, and local Frise's, which were absolutely delicious. The drinks were also affordable, with a glass of Prosecco costing €3.50 and a beer costing the same. The sea was calm and inviting, which was a welcome relief from the scorching heat. Snorkeling over the rocks was an exciting experience, even though there weren't many fish to see. Nevertheless, it was still a fascinating sight to behold.
