Portopiccolo Sistiana Beach is a naturist beach situated in the coastal town of Duino Aurisina / Devin - Nabrežina, on the North Adriatic Sea Coast. This beach is known for its natural beauty, characterized by a clean sea and a pebbly shoreline. The beach's tranquility is enhanced by the relative silence, with the sound of waves and birds being the predominant noise.
Despite its proximity to a road and train tracks, Portopiccolo Sistiana Beach maintains its serene atmosphere. Visitors are advised to speak softly and move slowly to maintain the peaceful ambiance, as it is not a gathering spot for loud activities such as barbecues. This beach is frequented by naturists from the region seeking a quiet and undisturbed experience away from the crowds.
The beach offers a variety of amenities to enhance the visitor experience. There are terraces available, which provide a more luxurious experience and access to a pool. Food and beverages are also available for purchase at the beach, albeit at a higher cost.
Access to Portopiccolo Sistiana Beach is through a steep and rugged path from the coast, adding to the charm of the visit. This walk through the village also provides a glimpse into the peaceful coastal town. However, visitors should be aware that no free parking is available in the area. Despite this, the beach is considered worth at least one visit for its natural beauty and the unique serenity it offers.
Additionally, there is a stone basin with fresh water, possibly from a former aqueduct filter, where visitors can take a refreshing dip. Visitors are encouraged to leave the beach clean to maintain its pristine condition. During the winter months, the beach is particularly peaceful, but come the first weekend of January, it becomes a hub of activity due to the Corsa della Bora event.
