Such a shame, they've turned a cool surf spot into a Disneyland for tourists. Instead of surfing, there are now huge fenced-in swimming areas, and you can't leave your own equipment anywhere on the beach anymore because there are too many families with umbrellas and sun loungers blocking access to the water. And unfortunately, since this year, the surf instructors have been blocking the entire permitted corridor for entering the sea to surf. When we asked, we were told that since this year, it's no longer permitted to leave private surf equipment in the huge zone in front of the permitted access to the sea. It's only permitted to leave private surf equipment in the beach areas where the swimming zones are, and these are completely overcrowded, so there's no room. So there's no safe area left for your own private surf equipment, not even for customers! A real shame about what was once Italy's coolest surf spot.

All in all: no chilling out if you are searching for a chilled cappuccino.
