Spiaggia del Cannone, Small beach in Tropea, Italy

Located north of the tourist harbor, this beach combines fine sand with pebbles and rocks, bordered by Mediterranean vegetation on both sides.

The beach name originates from a 17th-century cannon discovered in nearby waters, which now stands at the Largo Galluppi viewpoint overlooking San Leonardo rock.

Local merchants traditionally used natural rock pools within the nearby cave to soak and mature lupini beans in seawater for several days.

Access to the beach requires descending stairs from the northern pier of the tourist port, with operating hours from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Swimmers can reach a cave from this beach that connects to another shore called La Rotonda through an underwater passage.
