Sperlonga named Europe's best beach in Condé Nast Traveller awards

Sperlonga, a coastal town in Italy's Lazio region located between Rome and Naples, has been named the best beach in Europe in the Condé Nast Traveller Readers’ Choice Awards. The destination received an overall score of 96.67.

Characterized by its Blue Flag certification, Sperlonga features approximately three kilometers of sandy coastline, clear blue water, and mountain views. Travelers have described the location as a quiet, family-friendly alternative to more crowded destinations like the Amalfi Coast, often comparing its whitewashed streets to Greek fishing villages.

Other highly ranked locations in the awards included the Blue Lagoon in Malta, Patara Beach in Turkey, Praia da Falésia in Portugal, and Falassarna Beach in Greece.
