The beach itself was a beautiful stretch of fine white sand, and the water was a clear, transparent blue with a shallow entry that made it perfect for relaxing. Everything about the day felt effortless, and the mix of scenery, beverages, and calm sea made it an ideal spot to spend an afternoon unwinding. Saluti

SEASIDE FUN Marina…read moredi Modica is located on the seaside in between the cities of Sampieri & Pozzallo in Sicily. It is only about a twenty minute drive from the Baroque city of Modica. In the old days the drive would take forever but there is now a direct highway that gets everyone to the water faster. High season at Marina di Modica is in August. Everyone in Italy is on vacation during this month and they all go to the beach. This little beach town comes alive and gets over crowded with over 16,000 locals. If you come here in the winter, then it is a ghost town. In fact, a few of my cousins live here year round and tell me that only 30 permanent people live here in the winter. I find it amazing that people wouldn't live by the sea year round because water views are priceless. Near the beach is the Piazza Mediterraneo which is the central location of Marina di Modica. This area is always full of action in the evening. There is a stage set up for bands and various acts. Tonight we watched a show of young children singing. There was even a judges panel scoring the singers just like American Idol. The recorded music the singers used was really bad. They were all singing to Muzak which is simply the worse recorded midi music ever made. The kids were cute but none of the songs were familiar to us. The real busy nights are Friday, Saturday & Sunday. People walk along the board walk of the beach talking and meeting with friends. There are even food trucks selling panini sandwiches, burgers, hot dogs, gelato, fries, water & beer. One food truck called the Auto Bar has a porchetta sandwich. The porchetta was actually a stuffed whole pig which they sliced the meat off for the panini. I must also make a statement and say that I do not agree with the french fry sandwiches. This is the weirdest thing I've ever seen and I am not ordering one for research because I don't think it's right. The beach is always packed in August. This is the most southern place in Sicily. The beach is protected by a large bay with some great sand dunes. This is one of the most active beaches I've ever seen. Everyone is playing some kind of beach game. Honestly I've never seen so much action. The beach also has many restaurants that offer food and drink. These places have great views. You can also find more places to eat just up the road in town. I've also seen people selling fruits, vegetables and fish along the beach. The fish guy was really cool because the back of his van was loaded full of ice and fish. People were buying fresh fish directly out of a van down by the sea. It was so much fun to watch. So if you find yourself in Sicily then it is worth it to make a trip to Marina di Modica as long as it's summer. The beach has a lot of action and it is a great place for people watching. I could sit here all day drinking my cappuccino by my favorite bar and watching the beach show.

We were staying right at this beach here for five nights in our holiday home…read more It is a very quiet beach, on weekdays around 10 - 20 visitors with their chairs. On weekends it gets a bit more popular, maybe around 100 people. Including the ones renting their chairs from the Piper Bar (which is not great). But most visitors bring their gear. It is a beautiful little beach, clean water and clean sand as well. After 7pm it gets really quiet and you almost got the place for yourself. A good moment for dog-owners to play with their furry friends (we did as well bring our dog - just clean up after him/her). There aren't any facilities on site, except for the Beach Bar. Parking spots are plenty and free. It is also a safe place, even at night. It's in a quiet, peaceful little village. A popular spot is the "umbrella" with palm tree leaves, right in front at the beach where the waves brake. It gets taken fast, so get up early if you want that spot. We enjoyed this beach very much, especially in the evenings and on weekdays. Depending on the weather it can be quite windy, even in high season. And the water is pretty cold. But still...a real hidden gem. And you can enjoy the sun setting over the ocean daily.

Approx 25-35 minute walk on a sandy, dirt stretch to get to the water. On a hot day, the sand gets hot, so wearing flip flops or going barefoot can be painful. The beach itself was nice, a tad overcrowded. There's lots of seaweed washed up on shore & in the water but the water is still surprisingly clear. Not the warmest but feels good on a hot day. There are schools of fish swimming so if you have snorkeling gear you might want to bring it
