Spiaggia di Cala Turchino, Public beach in San Vito Chietino, Italy
The beach features light pebbles along its shoreline and extends into clear waters that gradually deepen in the Adriatic Sea.
During the early 20th century, the beach gained recognition through Gabriele D'Annunzio's novel 'Il Trionfo della Morte', which referenced the local Trabocco Turchino.
The beach connects to the traditional Trabocchi Coast, where wooden fishing platforms extend over the water, representing centuries of local fishing methods.
Visitors need to bring their supplies as the beach maintains its natural state without services, facilities, or vendors in the immediate area.
The geological formation includes breakwater cliffs that frame the beach, creating distinct water patterns and color variations in the sea.
