About the beach
In the municipality of Tusa, in the province of Messina (Sicily), Marina is a pebble beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Orientation: north (355°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ostro (S) or Sirocco (SE), keeps it calm; the Tramontane (N) or Mistral (NW) hits it from the sea and can raise waves.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
Bathing water rated good by the EEA (2025 season).
Reported facilities: wheelchair access. Data from OpenStreetMap, may be incomplete.
