About the beach

In the municipality of Bari, in the province of Bari (Apulia), Il Canalone is a sandy beach on the Adriatic Sea.

Orientation: north (5°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ostro (S) or Libeccio (SW), keeps it calm; the Tramontane (N) or Gregale (NE) hits it from the sea and can raise waves.

Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.

Bathing water rated excellent by the EEA (2025 season).
