Rodi Garganico Beaches
Rodi Garganico, a gem nestled in the Gargano, overlooks the Adriatic Sea, enjoying a unique position surrounded on three sides by azure and crystalline waters. The natural conformation of Rodi Garganico is particularly unique, being surrounded on three sides by the Adriatic Sea. This stretch of coastline - about 8 km long - is characterized by the presence of small cliffs and rocky outcrops alternating with sandy beaches, creating a varied and picturesque landscape.
The main beaches are those of Levante and Ponente, each with distinctive features.

The Levante Beach
Located to the east of the city, it is a paradise of tranquility that extends for about 4 km until almost San Menaio, a hamlet of Vico del Gargano. This beach is characterized by its golden and fine sand and by the sea with shallow waters, ideal for families and children who can play safely.
On the other side, to the west of the city, lies the Ponente Beach, known for its stretches of golden and soft sand, and for an exceptionally clear and clean sea. This area is particularly appreciated not only for its natural beauty but also for the presence of numerous tourist-accommodation facilities, which make it the most visited area of Rodi Garganico. Among the most recommended places in this area are the Bay of Santa Barbara Beach and the Lido del Sole Beach, both equipped with beach resorts offering all the necessary services for a comfortable and relaxing holiday.
The depth of the seabed near the shore is generally shallow and gently sloping, making these beaches particularly suitable for families with children.
