Spiaggia Santa Maria dell'Isola, Mediterranean beach in Tropea, Italy
The sandy beach stretches along the crystal waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea, beneath limestone cliffs and the Santa Maria dell'Isola monastery.
The beach takes its name from the adjacent Byzantine monastery, constructed during the 6th century on a prominent limestone cliff overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Local fishermen continue their traditional morning routines at the beach, bringing fresh catches directly to the nearby restaurants for authentic Calabrian dishes.
Access to the beach requires descending approximately 300 stairs from the town center, with rental services for umbrellas and chairs available from June to September.
The small cave known as Linguata connects to the larger Palombaro Grotto, forming an underground network accessible during low tide periods.
