A curated guide to the most beautiful coves and beaches of Lampedusa — all close to your stay.

Lampedusa’s icon

Isola dei Conigli

~5 km

Isola dei Conigli

This is the beach that put Lampedusa on the map: powder-white sand, shallow turquoise water, and a protected nature reserve where loggerhead turtles nest each summer. Reaching it means a short walk down from the car park — worth it for water this clear.

  • Fine white sand · Calm shallow water
  • No bars — bring water/snacks
  • Protected turtle nesting reserve
  • Best visited early to beat the crowds

  • Rocky platforms · Deep clear water
  • Bar/restaurant above the bay
  • Very limited sandy areas
  • Best with calm sea
