Cala Lunga

Cala Lunga is a sand beach along the Adriatic coast, stretching between limestone cliffs with shallow waters and fine golden sand. The shoreline is framed by tall rock formations that create sheltered swimming areas.

The beach sits near watchtowers built in the 16th century to defend the coast from pirate attacks and maritime threats. These structures show how important this coastline was for protecting inland settlements.

Traditional fishing remains a part of daily life in this area, with local boats and practices visible from the shore. The connection between the sea and local food culture is strong, as fresh catches arrive regularly at nearby establishments.

The shallow water makes this place suitable for families and beginner swimmers. Beach equipment rental is available, and parking is located a short walk from the shore.

At low tide, natural pools form among the rocks, creating spaces where small sea creatures gather. These formations attract researchers and photographers interested in coastal marine life.
