Spiaggia Torre San Giovanni, Beach in Torre San Giovanni, Italy
Spiaggia Torre San Giovanni is a beach on the Ionian coast of Puglia with fine white sand and turquoise waters. The shoreline alternates between sandy and rocky sections, offering both private clubs with rental services and free public areas for bathing and relaxation.
The beach takes its name from a 16th century watchtower built to defend against pirates, which still stands near the marina today. This tower shows the strategic importance this coastal region once held in the region's past.
The beach serves as a social hub where locals and visitors gather throughout the summer, with restaurants nearby serving fresh seafood and regional dishes. The beach clubs here act as meeting points where people spend their days swimming, eating, and watching the sunset together.
The beach is easy to reach with ample parking available along the shoreline, making day visits convenient. Both private facilities and public areas are well-accessible, offering options suited to different visitor preferences.
The nearby Parco Naturale Regionale nature reserve protects dunes and reefs that shelter rare Mediterranean plant and animal species. This natural area often goes unnoticed by visitors who come mainly for the beach itself.
