Spiaggia Scala di Furno

Spiaggia Scala di Furno is a sandy beach along the Ionian coast where golden sand gradually gives way to deeper Mediterranean waters. The shoreline extends for several hundred meters with small rocky coves that create sheltered pockets for swimming.

The coast served as an important trading port in ancient times for Greek and Roman merchants exchanging goods. Remnants of these old settlements remain visible in some areas, telling the story of how long people have lived here.

The surrounding villages maintain a fishing heritage passed down through families, which you can see reflected in nearby restaurants. Local fishermen work in the early morning hours and bring their daily catch directly to the kitchens along the shore.

The beach offers lounger and umbrella rentals, with parking available within walking distance. It is best to arrive in the early morning to find good spots and avoid midday crowding.

The clear water allows you to see many fish species and water plants that live in this area. This water clarity is especially noticeable on calm days and makes snorkeling a rewarding experience.
