Pontassieve - all beaches

Awesome

The beach is nice with clear sea in the morning, though it deteriorates in the afternoon. There are plenty of fish, but some areas have a lot of seaweed floating around. We were pleased to find a section of the beach with minimal seaweed. Unfortunately, our experience was marred when money was stolen from our car, the lock was forced, and we saw a decomposing rat floating in the sea, though these incidents aren't anyone's fault. It was the final straw for me🙂. Overall, the beach is okay; I've seen better and worse.

We had an amazing experience at the beach thanks to Claudia's exceptional professionalism, grace, and kindness. She warmly welcomed us tourists and provided us with valuable information that left a lasting impression. We truly appreciate her attention and the abundance of information she shared. We will definitely be returning, solely because of her.

This beach offers a gradual entry into the sea, with some areas being more accessible than others. However, the overall experience is delightful as the water is only 60-100 cm deep about 1-2 meters from the shore, making it perfect for small children to enjoy. The beach itself is sandy with a pebble belt, and the bottom is mostly sandy. There are plenty of umbrellas and sunbeds available, as well as cabins, toilets, and refreshments on the beach. The water is warm and refreshing, making it a perfect spot to cool off during hot summer days. Refreshments such as sprite and Algida ice cream are available for 2-3€, while food is priced around 13€ and coffee at 1.20€. The beach is comfortable and popular among Italian visitors, making it an ideal destination for those looking to immerse themselves in the local culture.

The beach experience was absolutely exceptional, with a team of highly skilled and professional instructors who were both patient and knowledgeable. The lessons were conducted in a gradual manner, starting off in the shallow waters before venturing out into the vast expanse of the open sea. To facilitate the activities, two dinghies were made available, adding to the overall excitement and adventure of the experience. All in all, it was simply superb!

The beach was lovely and the staff at the bar were very friendly. However, I personally found that there was a bit too much vegetation in the water for my liking.
