Crestarella

Crestarella is a serene beach situated in the scenic town of Vietri sul Mare, in the Costiera Amalfitana region of the province of Salerno, Italy. The beach is renowned for its clear waters, cleanliness, and unique natural characteristics. The beach's tranquility is further enhanced by the fact that it is not typically crowded, providing a peaceful and enjoyable beach experience for visitors.

One of the distinctive features of Crestarella is the historic Torre Crestarella, a tower constructed in the late 16th century for defensive purposes. The tower, also known as Torre del Chiatamone, is perched on a high rocky promontory known as Cannocchiale by the locals, overlooking the sea. Today, the tower and its adjacent park serve as a private residence for events and private parties, contributing to the enchanting beauty of the beach.

Crestarella offers a range of amenities for its visitors. There are 70 umbrellas with two sunbeds each available for rent, and an additional 50 sunbeds in the solarium area. Visitors also have access to changing rooms, as well as hot showers to rinse off the saltwater. To maintain a calm and tranquil atmosphere, access to the beach is restricted once all spots are taken.

The beach resort is accessible by various modes of transport. Visitors can choose to walk, cycle, or drive from the center of Vietri sul Mare. For those choosing to drive, Crestarella provides a reserved parking area. The beach is popular, especially during peak tourist seasons, and it is recommended to reserve in advance to secure a spot.
