Coral beach, Mediterranean beach in Lipari, Italy.
Coral Beach is a shoreline on the eastern coast of Lipari mixing pebbles and sand beside clear Mediterranean waters. The shallow seafloor extends far out and the beach is backed by a promenade lined with food vendors.
This strand sits near ancient volcanic formations of the Aeolian Islands studied by scientists since the 1700s. Those geological features shaped how the entire region formed and developed over time.
Small restaurants and bars line the waterfront, serving local Sicilian food made from fish caught by boats that leave daily from this shore. The simple establishments reflect how people here have always lived from the sea.
Bus services connect this beach to Lipari Town with journeys taking around 15 minutes. Getting there is straightforward and parking plus basic facilities are available along the shoreline.
Nearby white cliffs come from old pumice quarries and create an unusual contrast against the dark volcanic rocks. This color difference makes the beach visually distinctive since the two rock types sit side by side.
