Cala Marinella is a picturesque beach located in the Zingaro park. Known for its natural beauty, it is a popular spot for both resting and bathing. The beach is situated along a coastal trail, making it easily accessible to visitors. However, due to its popularity, it can get quite busy at times.
The beach's natural characteristics include a rocky coast, which requires an easy climb for those wishing to get in and out of the water. Despite this, it is an excellent place for swimming and snorkelling. The water at Cala Marinella is often described as 'unbelievable', making it a preferred choice over other nearby beaches which can be overcrowded and less appealing.
While the beach does not offer amenities such as sunbed rentals, visitors are advised to bring water shoes due to the rocky terrain. However, it is still possible to enjoy the beach without them, provided one is careful.
Despite its charm, visitors are advised to avoid Cala Marinella during peak season due to limited space. It is considered one of the best coves in the reserve, and many regret not spending their entire day there. However, the beach's popularity can lead to it being quite crowded, particularly during peak times.
