About the beach
La Maddalena is a pebble beach in the municipality of Monte Argentario, in the province of Grosseto (Tuscany), on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Facing south (201°), it is sheltered with the Tramontane (N) or Gregale (NE); with the Ostro (S) or Libeccio (SW), which comes from the sea, it gets rougher. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable. The seabed type is inferred from nearby beaches mapped on OpenStreetMap.
