With Scala dei Turchi being closed, Punta Bianca is really a great alternative and because it is in a preserve, it isn’t built up with commercial and residential buildings. It would be a great place to picnic, and is fully accessible by car off of the main road. I parked in one of the many turnouts before the road starts to go down toward the water, because I wasn’t sure of its condition. I was disappointed to come all this way to not be able to walk on Scala dei Turchi, but I think this was actually better. Spectacular location. Really turned a disappointing afternoon around for me, so I say, forget the crowds and disappointment at Scala dei Turchi and go here instead.
