Arcomagno Beach: the best time is at sunset
Arcomagno Beach is crescent-shaped and gets its name from the presence of a large rocky arch that “protects” it from the sea. The scene becomes even more suggestive thanks to the Grotta del Saraceno, which is right next door: a cavity carved over the centuries by the erosive activity of the sea and which houses a source of fresh water within. This small bay becomes especially magical at sunset when the sun’s rays pass through the enclosed passage between the rocks and reflect on the water.
