About the beach

Costa dei Barbari, within Duino Aurisina-Devin Nabrežina (the province of Trieste, Friuli-Venezia Giulia), is a pebble beach on the Adriatic Sea.

The beach faces southwest (229°). It is most sheltered when the Gregale (NE) or Levante (E) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Libeccio (SW) or Ponente (W) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.

Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.

Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
