Beaches

The water under the cliffs, the equipped lidos, the small coves worth knowing. All reachable from the B&B.

Baia di Nerano (Marina del Cantone)

A fishing village in Massa Lubrense facing a sheltered bay, inside the Punta Campanella Reserve. The beach is pebbly, the water clear.

Cala di Mitigliano

25 min by car

Secluded cove inside the Punta Campanella Reserve, facing Capri. Deep-blue water, rocks, no facilities.

La Marinella

15 min by car

A small inlet on the Massa Lubrense coast, accessed from Sant'Agata or Marina della Lobra. A pebble beach wedged between cliffs, transparent water.

Marina di Puolo

10 min by car

Fishing village on the coast of Massa Lubrense, kept the way it was fifty years ago: low houses against the cliff, boats hauled up on the shoreline, a couple of seafront trattorias.

Regina Giovanna Baths

30 min on foot

Regina Giovanna Baths are a natural pool carved into the rocks, with an opening to the open sea. Crystal-clear water, shallow bottom — one of the swimming spots most loved by locals.

Spiaggia della Tartaruga

15 min on foot

A small beach reached from Sant'Agnello, down a long staircase from the coastal road. Rocks, pebbles, a strip or two of sand.

Scrajo beach club, perched above the coast

Spiaggia di Scrajo

15 min by car

In Vico Equense, along the SS145 from Castellammare down to Sorrento. The historic Terme di Scrajo, in business since 1895, draw on a sulphur spring that flows straight into the sea.
