About the beach

Giarrette beach, within Monfalcone (the province of Gorizia, Friuli-Venezia Giulia), is a pebble beach on the Adriatic Sea.

“Giarrette beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.

The beach faces southeast (133°). 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.

Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.

Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
