Spiaggia dello Scario — Local services in Malfa

The spiaggia dello scario belongs to one of the the Must for nature and swimming 🏊 lovers. If you are lucky and you have a low waves day it is like swimming in an open natural pool. The water is crystal clear. The far out you swim the deeper the blue. Due to the vulcanic base the ground drops quickly from 1m to about 10m depth. If the sun is at highest point the beams of the sun lighten even then onto the ground. As usual in nature you are able to see a lot of sea inhabitants 🐠 🦀 The beach is a stone beach and therefore the water is very clear. On the other hand the stones may get very hot during the day and the access to the sea is more difficult but is still possible barefoot. I recommend to go until the water with shoes and go in the water barefoot. You can rent some water mattresses as well as sun umbrellas. The bar Maracaraibo serves food and drinks in a great quality, some veggies even from the own garden. The staff is highly polite and nice. They are eco friendly and try to reduce plastic wherever possible. Also the beach is clean. I can only recommend this beach for being one of the most beautiful spots of Salina for swimming...

You get even bring those into the sea.

It’s difficult to get into the water without shoes, but not impossible. I would say like my wife, you will not get out gracefully 😙.

The bar serve drinks and antipasto. They rent the mattresses for 5 euros each. Plenty of shades in the afternoon on one side...

Although very beautiful.. for those who are not fit or steady on their feet you might want to stay up at the beach hut and have lunch and a beer. Water is beautiful but was quite rough when I was there. The rock beach is hard to navigate - you must get a blow up bed as these small boulders are not made for lounging.. once you make it in the water not easy to get out with the little boulders. Thank goodness for friends who gave me a steadying hand .. staff is lovely sorting out my deflating air bed .. don’t miss seeing the beautiful water and rocks but think about your abilities if you are wanting a day of lounging and...
