Baia delle Zagare, Coastal beach in Mattinata, Italy.
The beach stretches along one kilometer of light sand mixed with pebbles, bordered by tall white limestone cliffs that extend into the Mediterranean Sea.
The bay's name originates from Arabic language, referring to the white citrus flowers that bloom in the surrounding areas during spring and autumn seasons.
Local residents maintain traditional fishing practices along the coastline, contributing to the regional seafood-based gastronomy of the Gargano district.
Access to the beach requires either registration at local accommodations or obtaining a designated pass due to environmental protection measures.
The bay features two notable rock formations rising from the water, creating natural landmarks visible from multiple points along the Gargano coastline.
