About the beach
Lido Chiapparo, within Taranto (the province of Taranto, Apulia), is a sandy beach on the Ionian Sea.
The name is that of the beach club mapped on OpenStreetMap for this stretch of beach.
The beach faces northwest (298°). It is most sheltered when the Sirocco (SE) or Levante (E) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Mistral (NW) or Ponente (W) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
