Secret beaches near marina di ragusa, da protected, small coves and less frequented stretches of coast: five places to be reached in the right hours to find the most authentic side of the Ragusan sea.
In August Marina di Ragusa wakes up early. At eight o'clock the waterfront already smells of coffee and sunscreen, while the first families set the umbrellas on the central beach. However, it is enough to walk away a few kilometers to change completely atmosphere.
Randello, beyond the pine forest
The beach of Randello is enclosed between Punta Brazzo and Scoglitti, in front of a pine forest and a system of coastal dunes. The short journey to the arenile is part of the experience: behind the cars, a long stretch of sand appears. In some places access and parking can be difficult, so it is advisable to arrive by 8:30 with water and lunch already in the backpack
The small beaches of Punta Brazzo
Vigliena and Euridice are names known especially by those who frequent this stretch of coast. Here sand, low rocks and Mediterranean vegetation form more collected coves than the city coast. Punta Brazzo has three main bathing areas, including the "spiaggione" connected to Randello
Punta di Mola, the sea of the morning
Between Marina di Ragusa and Casuzze there are less evident accesses and small rocky traits. They are places suitable for those who love to enter the water with mask and shoes, especially on days without wind. Before nine the sea is often quieter; in the central hours it is preferable to avoid shadow-free areas.
Foce dell'Irminio, nature without establishments
Secret beaches towards Donnalucata, the coastal area of Irminio preserves a more natural character and is indicated among the less crowded beaches of the area. You need to follow paths, vegetation and directions on the spot, avoiding crossing the dunes.
The secret, in August, is not to find a completely empty beach, but to choose the right time. Coming soon, walking a few minutes and staying until the light becomes golden allows you to discover a slower, quieter and sincere Marina di Ragusa.
