Beach 300 Steps

Beach 300 Steps, or Spiaggia 300 gradini, is a picturesque beach nestled in the coastal town of Gaeta, in the Lazio region of Italy. The beach is aptly named for the 300 steps that visitors must descend to reach its white sandy shoreline. The beach's natural characteristics include rocky cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation that provide a protective barrier, resulting in calm, transparent waters. The water quality at Beach 300 Steps is acclaimed for its excellent clarity, often compared to a swimming pool when viewed from above.

The beach offers a tranquil atmosphere, with surprisingly low crowds even during the peak summer months. Part of this beach is dedicated to naturism and is recognized as gay-friendly. Amenities at the beach cater to the needs of visitors and include a kiosk that sells food and beverages.

Parking is available for visitors in designated lots along the road. Access to the beach can be obtained either through private beach establishments or directly from the parking areas. The cost for accessing the beach through these establishments typically involves a small fee.

To reach Beach 300 Steps, visitors can travel from the nearby cities of Gaeta and Sperlonga, with the journey taking approximately 2.5 to 3 hours from Rome. Once in Gaeta, visitors can explore the town's rich historical significance as a Maritime Republic and visit other attractions such as the regional park of Monte Orlando, and the sanctuary of Montagna Spaccata.
