Torre Pali Beach is the shoreline of Salve’s seaside resort around its distinctive offshore tower.

Torre Pali is the 16th-century coastal watchtower that gave the resort its name. The municipality describes it as largely ruined and now standing on a small islet a few metres offshore. It is a historic and scenic landmark, not a bathing platform, and should not be approached by climbing or unsafe swimming.
Isola della Fanciulla Beach is a small free coastal sector at Torre Pali linked to a nature trail through dunes and salt-tolerant vegetation, ending at a sandy pocket between low rocks. The story of a young woman abducted by pirates is a local legend, not a verified historical fact.
