The beach is beautiful, the sea is clean. The beach is clean in the morning, very dirty in the afternoon. Italians are a very loud people, so you won't have peace. There is no shade until 3-4 in the afternoon. Buy an umbrella. Towels will be dirty after 15 minutes. There are no cabins on the beach to change clothes. No wc. There are no outside showers to take a shower. City beach, full of people, but beautiful 🥰

Fly infested due to dead and rotting seaweed. Really bad infestation. Like a cloud hanging low over the rotted seaweed. It is very close to main streets of Old Town. Some nice bars and restaurants within a few steps. Difficult to enter water from the rocks but there is a very small stretch of sand where you can walk straight in. Gets to shoulder height quickly but there are no waves and easy to walk in/out. Sandy stretch is only available at low tide and is exactly where the seaweed is piled up and left to rot. So simply not comfortable to walk past or sit there. High tide washes seaweed back into the water Car parking is available nearby less than 2 minutes walk away. Nicer beaches are just a little further out and worth the walk.

Lovely little beach right by the old town. The water is clearest in the morning in summer and a swim here is the perfect way to start your day if staying nearby. Park up and be a rock lobster if you want to catch some rays later on. Old mate selling fruit by the stairs is an honest vendor so make sure you give him a visit. The lady around the corner selling T/A aperol spritzes is a legend.

Nice to stop bey. Walk around and enjoy the suriunding. Very inviting for jogging or just to hang out with friends. Close to the city of Monopoli. Wealthy city with international brands. Also one harbor and the old history center towen invite you. Stop by eat and drink. If you go by car, also consider that your very close toany masserias and 5 star hotels. Enjoy your trip

Beach located at city center doesn't have lengthy shore but quite lot of people throng this place because of it's close proximity. It's quite walking distance from Monopoli railway station Or bus stop near to it. Apart from beach you have ports nearby, there is also a museum. There is no facility for shower etc. Water color is turquoise with almost less or dead waves.

Large public beach in the Old Town of Monopoli. Many access points to get to the sand or the rocks if you prefer. Totally within walking distance of the Old Town. Some smaller beaches a short walk from the main beach with a few access points. Restaurants and bars close by, huge plus.
