Spiaggia del Frate o Sottosanta
It is located northern to the Port of Numana, after the Spiaggiola. A small paradise of fine gravel with transparent water, framed by the green of the Conero Park and the white limestone rock. It is ideal for swimming and some snorkeling. Between the two beaches the Cetacean Foundation sometimes place a net to form a cove where the turtles are placed, previously cured, before being released. A few meters from the shore there is a rock called Sasso del Bo’.

Spiaggia dei Sassi Neri

The thick Mediterranean vegetation comes almost to the shore giving life to a fantastic landscape.
Spiaggia delle Due Sorelle
Accessible only by sea due to a municipal ordinance that prohibits access to the only path called “Passo del Lupo” because very difficult. The beach is made of pebbles and stones and takes its name from the two large rocks that watch over the beach called “Le Due Sorelle” (The Two Sisters). From the north they look like two sisters with hands joined in prayer. The water is transparent, crystal, clear and the unspoilt environment.
Spiaggia dei Forni e Spiaggia dei Gabbiani
