About the beach
Spiaggia di Tonnarella, within Furnari (the province of Messina, Sicily), is a sandy beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The beach faces northwest (327°). It is most sheltered when the Sirocco (SE) or Ostro (S) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Mistral (NW) or Tramontane (N) 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.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
