Long-term monthly averages: air from NASA POWER (2001–2020), sea from NOAA OISST (1991–2020); records are the extremes of 2001–2020. How the index works.
When to go
The beach-day index peaks in June–September; July scores 9.6/10 with highs of 29 °C, sea at 24.2 °C and 25 mm of rain.
That matches the median for beaches in Italy in the same month.
At its warmest the water here is 0.8 °C cooler than the Italy median for August (25.8 °C).
Across the year the sea averages 18.7 °C, cooler than 51% of the coastal beaches in the atlas.
November is the wettest month (106 mm) and July the driest (25 mm); the yearly total is about 710 mm.
Daylight runs from 9.1 hours in December to 15.3 hours in June; in mid-July the sun rises at 05:50 and sets at 20:51 local time.
Orientation, sun and shore
The shore faces south (170°). Open water fills about 58% of the horizon close by, which makes it an exposed spot with water on most sides.
The sun sets over the sea in October–March; in mid-December it goes down at 16:43 local time on a bearing of 239°.
Sunrise is over the sea in August–April.
Straight out to the south about 800 km of open sea lies before the next coast, enough for large swells to build.
About 1 km offshore the sea is roughly 18 m deep and 31 m at 3 km. Behind the beach the ground is about 0 m above sea level 500 m inland and 2 m at 1.5 km, a flat coastal plain.
Within 1 km, the land is 52% tree cover, 32% shrubland and 9% bare ground, sand or rock (satellite land-cover map, 2021): a largely natural setting. Water makes up 85% of that circle.
