Spiaggia di Punta Grande, within Realmonte (the province of Agrigento, Sicily), is a sandy beach on the Strait of Sicily.
The beach faces south (184°). 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.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
