Spiaggia diMarina di San Vito

Spiaggia di Marina di San Vito is a beach along the Costa dei Trabocchi with a narrow shoreline of small pebbles and gravel bordered by tall walls overlooking the Adriatic Sea. The strand offers both free access areas and organized sections with umbrellas, sun loungers, and immediate access to bars and bathhouses.

The Eremo delle Portelle, located on a nearby promontory, served as a residence for poet Gabriele D'Annunzio in summer 1889. This connection links the coast to Italian literary history of the 1800s.

Traditional fishing traps called trabocchi line the coast and many now operate as restaurants serving regional Abruzzo seafood. They shape the daily character of this shoreline and are woven into local life.

The water is shallow and slopes gently, making it manageable for different swimming abilities. Visitors should prepare for varied local conditions and different levels of facilities depending on which section they choose.

The shallow seabed meets Mediterranean maquis vegetation on the surrounding cliffs, creating distinct environmental zones. This blend of marine and terrestrial habitats offers visitors the chance to observe rarely visible ecosystems side by side.
