Lucrino beach is a beach in the municipality of Pozzuoli, in the province of Naples (Campania), on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
“Lucrino beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
Facing south (159°), it is sheltered with the Tramontane (N) or Mistral (NW); with the Ostro (S) or Sirocco (SE), which comes from the sea, it gets rougher. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
