Spiaggia San Michele is located just next to Urbani and, while still offering the same amenities, it has a wilder look.

Spiaggia delle Due Sorelle is a beach of white round pebbles which can be seen through the crystal clear water. The name of this beach, which means "two sisters" is due to the twin sea stack raising from the water,which look like two nouns praying.
