About
Spiaggia Fontane Bianche gets its name from the numerous freshwater springs that lie on the seabed, and is loved for its clear and shallow waters—great for kids to wade in. You can rent a beach chair and umbrella, or lie anywhere on the warm white sand along the free sections of the beach. A stay at the waterfront hotels and resorts will grant you private access to some sections of the beach. Beyond the beach clubs and seafront restaurants, the neighborhood itself is pretty quiet and peaceful. Walk along the rocky shore along the west end of the beach toward the stunning Punta del Cane. – Tripadvisor

The Vela coffee shop Restaurant attendance by the owners Santos also really recommend. Siracusa is very close for dinner and museums etc.In Siracusa I recommend the Restaurant his owner is Antonio Dave.

We went on a Sunday in August. It was hugely overcrowded, but also disgustingly dirty.
The cigarette buts and the beer bottles were bad enough, but the used condoms were something else. What a shame, as it's a beautiful beach with lovely surroundings.

In mid April ‘22 the beach was (a) littered, (b) 95% covered in seaweed and sea balls.
After a storm, just before Easter, it turned to 95% sand and just 5% seaweed - much better, but still littered.
No bins anywhere beyond the car park.
Public roads in poor condition, weeds growing everywhere, litter everywhere.
Hopefully better in the summer season ??

My family and I live near Catania and Fontane Bianche is our favorite beach close by. On or off season it is always well maintained, a rarity in Sicily, and the people are generally very pleasant. During the on season there is a lido with chairs and umbrellas for rent as well as paddle boat with and without slides. It is worth noting that during the off season the bathrooms and food items are not available.

We came here during the off-season and enjoyed the beach a lot. We had a chaise in the front row by the water and enjoyed nice cold beers.
The beach itself is drop dead gorgeous water, best carribean like water I have seen in all of Sicily.
I recommend it but only after high season

We lived 30 km from this beach, but we drove here by car almost every day. We tried different beaches, but this one in Fontane Bianche turned out to suit us best. We were on vacation with our little daughter & we really wanted to find a place where she can swim and enjoy the sea. The beach is beautiful with clean warm water & white sand.

The colors of the water were like a dream. We parked across from the Hotel Fontane Bianchi in a public lot, walked down to the. Beach club and enjoyed the water. Rented chairs and an umbrella. It was a lovely day.

Go to the end of Fontane Bianche and leave your car free on many available spots around. Sneak via the holiday resorts or use the public entrance around 500m before the end. There are some bars with drinks mostly, showers are working since June.
This is a sandy, clean beach to come with a family and children. Basically empty until the end of May. Water super clean, shallow for around 100-150m, cold'ish :-) Enjoy!

Chi mi consiglia un buon stabilimento balneare dove è possibile prenotare sdraio ed ombrellone con anticipo e dove ci sia un buon ristorante per pranzare. Ho una bimba piccola e vorrei trovare un posto con buoni servizi

Salve, volevo saper dove è possibile parcheggiare l'auto ( intendo un posto sicuro) e se il mare dista molto da dove si lascia l'auto.
Grazie.

Afraid we're visiting without the benefit of a car. Is it possible (and safe) to leave our wallets and phones with the staff at one of the paid sections of beach? Many thanks in advance!

In our experience the beach is totally free, though we’ve not been there at the height of the season. That said, not sure I’d leave wallets and phones with anyone!

Fontane Bianche era il mio primo punto di vacanza per quest'anno,, poi ho saputo da gente locale, che la spiaggia si è ritirata di diversi metri, cioè è stata mangiata dal mare e l'ho notato anche da diverse foto dove si vede che gli ombrelloni sono quasi di fronte alla battigia. Per questo ho scelto le spiagge del nord, unendo anche visite di cultura, tanto in ogni parte della Sicilia si possono praticare entrambe le cose, mare e cultura. Volevo sapere da chi ci è stato ultimamente, se la cosa è vera.

Buongiorno, il pessimo inverno appena passato ha colpito fortemente la Sicilia in diverse forme (spiagge, banchine etc.); si a Fontane Bianche si nota, direi però nel centro della spiaggia si vede di più mentre agli estremi meno. In questi giorni però stavano lavorando molto per recuperare parte della spiaggia. I servii offerti comunque sono ottimi sia per la spiaggia libera che per gli stabilimenti presenti.

Buon pomeriggio, nei giorni di pasqua ho visto qualcuno con il cane in spiaggia ma una parte della spiaggia è attrezzata a stabilimento balneare mentre la restante parte è spiaggia libera. Non ho fatto caso a cartelli specifici nei tanti accessi alla spiaggia.

Wir sind zur Zeit im Urlaub in Siracusa, dieser Strand scheint der einzig sehenswerte zu sein. Weiß jemand, ob wir diesen per Bus erreichen können? Das Taxi soll 60 Euro kosten.

Hallo Bernd!
Ich weiß zwar nicht, ob es einen Bus gibt, da wir ein Mietauto hatten, wollte nur kurz anmerken, dass ich mir nicht sicher bin, ob sich der Aufwand wirklich lohnt. Es ist halt ein Strand, ein weiter Sandstrand, ja. Aber das war's. Eventuell haben auch die Lidos nicht mehr auf. Falls ich es euch vorschlagen darf, ich würde weiter in den Süden fahren, in das Naturreservat, da kann man noch Vögel beobachten und umherwandern. Der Strand ist dort nicht gar so schön, da am Wasserrand eine kleine Mauer aus ausgestorbenen Algen liegt (war zumindest im August so). Schaut es euch im Internet mal an. Und das Naturreservat dürfte eventuell noch scherer zu erreichen sein...Wünsche Euch einen schönen Urlaub!
