Santa Caterina Beach, Sand beach in Nardò, Italy
Santa Caterina Beach extends along the Ionian Sea coast with fine sand and transparent waters, offering visitors many spots for swimming and sunbathing.
The beach area developed in the 16th century around a coastal watchtower that protected the region from maritime invasions and now serves as a landmark.
The beach reflects local maritime traditions through its restaurants serving fresh seafood and its marina filled with traditional fishing boats from Puglia.
Visitors can access free beach sections or rent sunbeds from establishments operating daily from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM between June and September.
The beach combines a pine forest backdrop with limestone cliffs, creating natural shade areas and opportunities for cliff diving into deep blue waters.
