The Spiaggia degli Scaloni is located in the heart of Otranto, on the south-eastern coast of Salento in the province of Lecce. Bathed by the waters of the Adriatic Sea, this beautiful beach is ideal for families with children as the sea remains shallow for long stretches. In the high season, the Spiaggia degli Scaloni becomes very crowded as it is easily accessible as it is right in the centre of town. The clear blue sea and the fine white sand make this small beach the main characteristics for enjoying a well-deserved day at the beach; it is also possible to rent beach umbrellas and sunbeds as well as inflatables of all kinds. The Spiaggia degli Scaloni owes its name to the fact that large steps separate the beach from the city"s seafront; over the years, this small beach has been the first stop both for locals and for those who usually come to visit the city of Otranto. In addition to the various services listed above, the Spiaggia degli Scaloni also offers a disabled service thanks to a volunteer association that manages the full usability of the sea for people with disabilities. So, if you happen to be in Otranto, as well as admiring the picturesque old town or visiting the Cathedral of Santa Maria Annunziata with its spectacular mosaic by Pantaleone, don"t forget to drop by the Spiaggia degli Scaloni for a refreshing swim to capture the true essence of a Salento summer... Happy holidays.
