Spiaggia di Punta Bianca is a unique beach located on the white cliffs of Monte Marcello. The beach is known for its distinctive black sand and rocky terrain, which contrasts beautifully with the crystal clear water.
It is accessible both by sea and by land, although the land route is not for the faint-hearted. The journey from the parking area at Montemarcello to the beach involves a challenging 1.5-hour hike along trails 446 and 444, and a steep forest path that eventually leads over sharp rocks. There is also a section of the trail that requires the use of a climbing rope along a sharp cliff side.
Despite the challenging journey, the beach's natural beauty makes it a popular spot, especially during the non-summer months when it becomes a peaceful oasis. However, visitors should be aware that the beach can get busy with boats.
The beach also features a small pier, which offers a unique diving experience. Parking is available along the road, but visitors are advised to park carefully to avoid fines.
Unfortunately, the route to the beach is often littered with rubbish. Despite this, the beach offers a stunning view of the sunset and is a popular camping spot, with the roofs of the bunkers along the path providing an excellent vantage point.
Spiaggia di Punta Bianca amenities include parking.
Visitor reviews highlight the stunning beauty of the beach, with its unique black sand, clear water, and peaceful atmosphere, especially during non-summer months. The white cliffs of Monte Marcello and the opportunity to watch the sunset or camp on the roofs of the bunkers along the path are also appreciated. However, visitors complain about the difficult and potentially dangerous access to the beach, the lack of respect from boats for swimmers, and the litter scattered along the path.
