Ficogrande Beach is a stunning destination located on the volcanic island of Stromboli in the Aeolian archipelago, Italy. This beach is renowned for its 600-meter stretch of coarse, pebbly black sand, a result of the island's volcanic origins. It offers a tranquil atmosphere, as it rarely gets crowded even during peak seasons.
The environment is picturesque, with small whitewashed buildings spilling onto the beach and a steep, verdant mountainside providing a scenic backdrop. The beach is ideal for swimming and sunbathing, with clear, clean waters that are generally safe for bathers.
Visitors can also enjoy activities like snorkeling and kayaking, taking in the breathtaking views of the Stromboli volcano rising out of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
