According to the National Geographic, the most beautiful beach in Italy is Capo Peloro of Messina. The beach won the first place because of its wonderful views but also because it is located in a strategic point.
Located at the northeastern tip of Sicily, Capo Peloro is located at the exact spot where the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Ionian Sea meet each other but it is also a mythical spot where there is a nature reserve and dolphins swim in crystal clear waters.
The beach of Capo Peloro, which is precisely a nature reserve, is a wide and flat stretch of sand, dominated by the Pilone, a giant electric pylon once the highest in the world.

The Capo Peloro lagoon is a site of international importance that in 1972 was included in the Water Project of the UNESCO. At national level, it is recognized by the Italian Botanical Society: within the reserve live more than 400 aquatic species and at least 10 are typical of that area.
Capo Peloro is the northern entry point of the Strait of Messina and is therefore marked by a very important lighthouse for navigation.
