Plage de Campitellu is a beautiful beach known for its unique natural characteristics. The beach is composed of coarse sand and small pebbles that do not stick to you, making it a comfortable place to relax. The beach is interspersed with rocks and reefs, providing an excellent spot for snorkeling. However, visitors should be aware of the steep drop off as they enter the water and the strong undertow. This makes the beach less suitable for weak swimmers and small children.
The beach is easily accessible by car and offers a large, free parking lot. There are also two disabled parking spaces and wheelchair access to the beach, making it accessible for everyone. However, visitors should not trust their GPS for directions as it may lead them through a blocked passage. Instead, they should follow the direction of the Calanca tower, with the beach and the car park located 100m after.
The beach is not crowded, with few swimmers even during peak times. This makes it a great place for those looking for a peaceful and quiet beach experience. The beach is also monitored during the summer months, providing an extra layer of safety for visitors. One of the highlights of the beach is the beautiful sunset, making it a perfect spot to end the day.
