Porto Ghiacciolo is one of the most charming coves in Monopoli, located south of the city center, at the foot of the Abbey of Santo Stefano. This beach is characterized by fine, light sand, crystalline waters that vary from emerald green to intense blue, and gently sloping seabeds, making it ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The name "Ghiacciolo" comes from the fresh sea currents that cross the area, giving the water a pleasantly refreshing temperature even in the hottest months.

Just outside the inhabited center, going south, the cove of Porto Ghiacciolo is dominated by the suggestive size of the castle of Santo Stefano and during the Middle Ages it was a protected natural harbor for the ships that docked there. Nowadays a large part of the beach is occupied by a private bathing establishment with a bar / restaurant attached.
