Small sandy bay on the Salento coast with clear turquoise water, low rocky outcrops and typical striped umbrellas in summer — ideal for intimate seascapes, long exposures and colorful sunset compositions. Best at sunrise for empty foregrounds and at golden hour for warm tones; sunsets can be dramatic over the Ionian horizon. Accessible by car from Lido Marini (street parking and small paid lots in summer); no entry fee. Summer is busy — visit weekdays or shoulder seasons (late spring/early fall)
