The beach is not abandoned at all; you can easily access it through Via Solferino, which offers ample parking space. Once you've parked, a friendly gentleman on a bicycle greets you and wishes you a good time by the sea. When you return to your car, the same gentleman will welcome you again and ask for one euro. He and his wife run a kiosk where you can buy drinks, such as a small bottle of Ferrarelle for one euro or a granita. She even hand-scrapes the ice for it. However, it's important to note that this activity is quite exploitative. In the past, this area would have been fenced off and inaccessible, but all the signs prohibiting access have mysteriously disappeared. If you turn away from the kiosk after almost bypassing the barriers to reach the beach, you have two options: go right, where the sea appears cleaner but more crowded, or go left, where the sea seems dirtier but less crowded. Unfortunately, the pollution remains the same regardless. This area is where the Sarno river flows, known as one of the dirtiest and most polluted rivers in Italy. The closer you walk along the beach towards its mouth, the stronger the unpleasant smell becomes. On the right side, you'll find C.di.Stabbia and Torre Annunziata, which are considered some of the ugliest and dirtiest towns in Naples. Both sides of the beach are filled with kilometers of rubbish, making it suitable for walks or sunbathing, but it's crucial to always keep your feet covered. I strongly advise against swimming in the water. Be cautious of people who claim to know the best areas, and even if the sea appears clean to you, be wary. This area is one of the most polluted in the Gulf of Naples.
