Efforts to mitigate the impact of mass tourism and preserve the quality of the experience at a highly frequented beach in Italy’s Liguria region have led to the implementation of new access controls. Under the revised regulations, entry to the beach is now permitted through three designated points, where security personnel utilize electronic counters to monitor the number of people present. While entry remains free of charge, the measures do not require visitors to secure tickets or reservations beforehand.
Mayor Francesco Solinas stated that these restrictions are necessary to prevent overcrowding, which has negatively affected both the comfort of the visitors and the condition of the beach itself. The primary objective, according to officials, is to ensure a more pleasant and comfortable environment for all who visit. These limitations are in effect daily until August 31, operating between the hours of 8:30 and 17:30.
The capacity limit for the area is set at 400 people. Should this upper limit be reached at any point, further entry will be restricted until the crowd disperses. The regulations do allow for temporary departures, such as for lunch or refreshments, after which individuals may re-enter the beach.
These controlled measures aim to balance public access with environmental and experiential preservation for the community and the visitors alike.
