A tiny inlet much loved by boatmen

Porticciolo is a small beach, less than 40 meters long and about 4 meters wide, accessible via a beautiful trail that passes through the forest, among the tall Mediterranean scrub with small-stemmed trees such as holm oak, strawberry tree, and heather.

The beach is made up of small pebbles and not-too-fine sand. Much of the beach is covered with Posidonia, although this depends on the storms at the start of the season, so it is not guaranteed to always be present.

The beautiful cliffs that surround the cove on both the right and left make it an excellent snorkeling spot.

Due to its position and being surrounded by Mediterranean scrub, the beach goes into shadow very early in the afternoon: during the mid-August period, it is already partially shaded around 4:30 PM.

From here, the view is particularly beautiful and stretches through the narrow inlet, towards Punta dell’Enfola and Punta Penisola.

In the waters in front of Porticciolo Beach, not too far from the small bay, there is a small mooring field that, especially during the summer, sees several boats moored.

Being exposed to the north-east, it is sheltered from all winds from the opposite direction, ranging from the sirocco to the westerly winds.

No services of any kind are available on the beach.

How to reach it

From the Biodola Beach, follow a trail that starts to the left of the beach and connects it in just a few minutes to the nearby Lamaia Beach. From there, continuing through the forest parallel to the rocks along the Sentiero della Salute, you can reach Porticciolo Beach. Continuing along the same trail will take you to Guardiola, the point on the right of the large sandy beach of Procchio.
