Ortigia's Pebble Paradise 🌊

Some beaches beg you to swim. Cala Rossa invites you to simply exist. We became part of the landscape today: • Our wine bottle sweating alongside sun-warmed pebbles • The Ionian Sea performing its endless blue sonata • Salt crystallizing on our skin like Sicilian diamonds The Ortigia Beach Manifesto: 11AM: Arrive as the French tourists leave 3PM: When the light turns honey-thick, open the Grillo wine 6PM: Let the sunset turn your paperback pages gold "We didn't lose time here—we let it evaporate like sea spray." 🍇 Beach Kit Essentials ✔ Local Cantine Gulino wine (€6, better than resort champagne) ✔ Caponata-stuffed panini from Caseificio Borderi ✔ The courage to nap publicly 🌞 Why This Cove? Water so clear you can count the sea urchins That one perfect flat rock for your wine glass 👇 Truth: How long could you actually sit still here? (We lasted 47 minutes before the second bottle called) #MediterraneanAlchemy
