Spiaggia Del Porto is a serene and picturesque beach located in the town of Acciaroli, within the municipality of Pollica, Salerno, in the Campania region of Italy. This tranquil beach is nestled in a protected natural area and is known for its excellent water quality, which has been under constant monitoring by the Comune di Pollica for over two decades to ensure the safety of bathing in the sea.
The beach is characterized by its unique blend of sandy and pebble sections. The sandy stretch near the port extends to the seabed, while further along, after passing under a bridge, the beach transitions into a pebble beach, which also extends to the seabed. This part of the beach is known to emit a sulfuric smell in the afternoons.
Spiaggia Del Porto offers a range of amenities for its visitors. It is an equipped beach featuring various services such as a bar, a marina, a restaurant, and a bathing establishment. The beach is divided into different sections, including a single lido, a portion used by the sailing club, and a free beach that is well-maintained with cleaning crews working every morning to keep the area clean.
Despite being conveniently located just a few steps away from the port, the beach manages to maintain a less crowded atmosphere, particularly during off-season periods. The beach's rocky seabed and the calm sea, even during red flag conditions, along with its close proximity to the port, make it an ideal spot for those seeking a quiet and restful place. The less transparent water near the shore clears up as one moves a little further into the sea.
The beach is managed by the Area Tecnica and visitors can find directions to the beach. The location, natural characteristics, and amenities offered, combined with its peaceful atmosphere, make Spiaggia Del Porto a must-visit destination in Acciaroli.
