Chiaia di Luna Beach

Chiaia di Luna Beach is a renowned destination situated on the island of Ponza, Italy. This beach is characterized by its unique semi-circular shape, reminiscent of a half moon, from which it derives its name, Chiaia di Luna. The beach is further distinguished by its stunningly high cliffs of white tuff rock that reach up to 100 meters, providing a dramatic backdrop to the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

Access to Chiaia di Luna Beach is currently limited. Traditionally, it could be reached either by sailing to it by boat or by accessing it via land through the Roman-built tunnel. However, access to the beach is now prohibited, and boats are required to keep a distance of at least 200 meters. The only way to reach the beach now is by private boat or by joining one of the boat tours that circumnavigate the island.

Visitor Reviews

Visitor reviews highlight the unique beauty of the beach, with its clear waters, dramatic scenery, and ancient Roman tunnel access. The beach's crescent moon shape and the stunning view from the overlooking piazza at sunset are particularly appreciated. However, visitors express frustration over the beach's closure due to safety concerns related to crumbling rock from the cliff walls.
