The beaches either side of the marina are sandy with crystalline, shallow waters which emit a bright blue colour. The area south of the marina is marked by dunes which provide a pleasant area to stroll around. All along the main road that runs alongside the beach, the Via Lungomare Matteotti, are a variety of restaurants, snack bars and a sprinkling of small shops. The most iconic building in San Foca (which translates as Saint Seal), is the Torre San Foca: a medieval watchtower that was built to protect the village from Saracen raiders.
