💡 Tips
- Visit Punta Prosciutto beach early in the morning to enjoy the mirror-like water.
- Check the wind direction: the sea is calmest and clearest when the Tramontana (north wind) blows.
- Use the guarded parking lots behind the dunes to avoid heavy fines.
- Stock up on groceries in Porto Cesareo, as Padula Fede has only small mini-markets.
- Bring your own sunshade, as the free beach sections offer no natural shade.
