Sfinalicchio, the bay and the tower of Sfinale

Sfinalicchio beach is about 10 km north of Vieste, halfway to Peschici. This is the last beach in Vieste, after the small beaches of Crovatico and "the chianca” (named after the islet that shelters it). It was once separated from the beach of Sfinale, in the territory of Peschici.
Almost 2 km long, with a sandy bottom that slopes gently and has a wild charm due to the vegetation that frames it, Sfinale is one of the least frequented and most peaceful beaches.
The bay is a favorite destination for the practice of water sports such as windsurfing and kitesurfing, due to its exposure to favorable currents. On the west ridge of Sfinale an ancient one is clearly visible sighting tower against the Saracen danger, now in a clear state of abandonment.
