About the beach
Palmintiello beach, within Lizzano (the province of Taranto, Apulia), is a beach on the Ionian Sea.
“Palmintiello beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
The beach faces south (195°). It is most sheltered when the Tramontane (N) or Gregale (NE) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Ostro (S) or Libeccio (SW) 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).
