In the meantime, let’s consider some of the notable aspects of this pearl of the Mediterranean and its mosaic of wonderful scenery and facilities situated in an area of less than 8 square kilometres.
A rocky coastline, cliffs overlooking the sea and various enchanting gorges enclosing small sandy beaches and basins of pure crystalline water are particular characteristics that render this island a unique venue. The interior of the island, which is of volcanic origin, is no exception and you will be captivated by its fascinating archaeological sites and small villages.
Beaches you should certainly visit which can be reached by sea or on foot
The beaches on the island of Ponza may be divided into two categories: those that can be explored on foot and those that can only be reached by boat.
The surfaces of almost all of them, however, are covered in gravel and pebbles, so we would suggest you wear rubber shoes if, in addition to basking in the sun, you would like to explore these areas.
Among those that can be reached by land, be sure to visit the Cala Feola beach, one of the very few on the island that are covered in sand. It can be reached by following a path that starts from the Villaggio dei Pescatori, and, thanks to its convenient features it became the most popular local venue for families with children.
This rock formation, which can be seen from località Le Forna, has a form that might remind us of the contours of a sea turtle. This rock is easily reached by walking along a path that begins at a point close to the church in the village of Le Forna. At the end of the track you will discover a cove with a breathtaking view.
