1 Reviews on “Baia dei Conigli”
Baia dei Conigli, also known as Rabbit Beach, is nestled along the coast of Lampedusa, part of Sicily’s Pelagie Islands. This renowned anchorage and beach offers stunning crystal-clear waters and soft sand, making it feel almost surreal. Located in a natural reserve, Baia dei Conigli is especially known for its natural beauty and biodiversity. While anchored here, you’ll be treated to turquoise waters reminiscent of a natural swimming pool. However, it’s crucial to note that the area is highly protected due to the nesting Caretta caretta sea turtles, which lay eggs here in spring and summer. To minimize impact, the beach is regulated with limited visitor access, requiring online reservations in peak season. The beach itself is accessible via a short walk, with limited facilities like a small refreshment kiosk along the way, so it’s wise to pack essentials. For those visiting by boat, calm conditions are best enjoyed when the winds come from the northwest; southeastern winds can bring choppier waters. Given the popularity of this idyllic spot, it can get busy during the summer, but visiting in the shoulder months offers a more peaceful experience.
