Spiaggia di Chiatona

Spiaggia di Chiatona is a sandy beach along the Ionian Sea with light-colored sand and gently sloping seabed. The shoreline stretches between two river mouths and provides direct access to relatively shallow waters suitable for swimmers of different abilities.

The beach sits in an ancient coastal region between two historical settlements and was shaped by trade and fishing activities. River deltas nearby have influenced how communities developed and sustained themselves in this part of Puglia over centuries.

Local restaurants and beach bars reflect the area's long relationship with fishing and the sea through their menus and daily rhythms. Traditional Puglian seafood dishes connect visitors to the lives of families who have worked these waters for generations.

The water here is shallow and relatively calm, making it suitable for families and different swimming abilities. Beach facilities like loungers, umbrellas, showers, and changing rooms are available and accessible during the main season.

Dolphins are frequently spotted in the shallow waters near shore, offering unexpected encounters with marine life during visits. The clear water visibility makes observing underwater features and swimming more enjoyable than in many other regional beaches.
