Behind the beach, pine forests provide shaded picnic spots, while lidos feature snack bars and restrooms. Equipment rentals for water sports are available at most establishments.

Swimming and snorkeling thrive in the calm waters, while paddleboards and kayaks can be rented for coastal exploration. Beach volleyball courts dot the free areas, and evening events at lidos transition the shore into a social hub. The pine forest offers jogging paths and shaded relaxation.

Several lidos offer wheelchair-friendly routes to the shoreline, though sand depth poses challenges. Accessible restrooms are available at larger beach clubs, and some hotels provide shuttle services with ramps. Staircases to the beach include handrails but lack ramps.

Paid lots and street parking are available near access points like Via Matteotti, though spaces become scarce by mid-morning in peak season. Free parking exists farther inland, requiring a short walk through the pine forest or along residential streets.

Local legend claims the Two Sisters rock formation represents siblings who drowned here. The beach’s pine forest, planted in the 1930s, now shelters migratory birds. Its unique microclimate shields it from strong Adriatic winds.

The Two Sisters sea stack, visible from the beach, is a photogenic landmark linked to local folklore. Nearby hiking trails wind through the pine forest, and the historic watchtower Torre dell'Orso overlooks the bay. Boat tours from neighboring marinas explore sea caves.
