Spiaggia di Sant'Irene

The Spiaggia di Sant'Irene lies along the coast between Tropea and Briatico and is one of the most evocative and recognisable beaches of the Costa degli Dei. It is a small bay set between light cliffs, where the sea is clear and takes on intense turquoise and blue hues. The element that makes this beach unique is the Scoglio di Sant'Irene, a rocky formation rising from the sea a few metres from the shore which, according to local tradition, is also known as the Scoglio di Ulisse. Its presence gives the beach strong scenic value and a charm linked to myth and the Mediterranean. The coast alternates stretches of light sand and smooth pebbles, creating a natural environment ideal for swimming, relaxing and snorkelling. The Spiaggia di Sant'Irene is perfect for those seeking tranquillity and natural beauty, away from crowded beaches.
