Cala Fonte beach

Cala Fonte is the best beach on Ponza island, Italy. This is a small natural pool popular among local fishermen as a safe harbor. There are steps for easy entry into the water, as well as sunbeds for rent, a restaurant and a bar. However, the approach to the beach is rocky, thus being unsuitable for children and for old men. Shore and seabed: stones. [edit]
