Spiaggia dei Greci, within Giardini-Naxos (the province of Messina, Sicily), is a beach on the Ionian Sea.
The beach faces southeast (127°). It is most sheltered when the Mistral (NW) or Ponente (W) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Sirocco (SE) or Levante (E) 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.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
