I had been to the neo 2020 reserve, I was struck by the beauty of the sea and the beach, even the path in the pine forest is a marvel. I found everything wonderful, but I didn't give 5 stars for only one reason, in this place you need control, for to preserve all this, but also above all for the safety of the people who frequent this place. It cannot exist that boats, dinghies, whiz by at unprecedented speed very close to the beach, with engines running. When I pointed this out to one of these "nice" customers who were outlawed, I was attacked, obviously I defended myself. I don't want to go into the details of the discussion, because the answers that were given to me really qualify this type of people. But the question is, what is the need for CONTROL. guard coastal, custodians, I don't know, but this is a very dangerous thing, plus no respect for the reserve. Too bad!!!

One or two spots to park at the edge of the reserve, and then a pleasant walk through the woodland brings you to the expansive beach. It's just simply a lovely spot to swim, relax, whatever. If in need to refreshments, nearby Gallo d'Oro at Borgo Bonsignore (interesting history in itself) is not a bad place.

Spent an afternoon here and walked most of the length of the beach, from the main parking area down towards Eric
Eraclea Minoa. Hardly anyone else on the beach. Waves were up so not safe to swim - sense it may often be like this.

The natural reserve is located in a wonderful place. A very long beach with sand and some small stones.
Services include bathrooms and tables under the trees

We did not find any crowd during our staying at the end of September. The area was quite and clean. Nature was great. The trees gave a nice shadow during the hot day and the sea offered a fresh bath. The beach is full of colorful stones. Beautiful place to visit.
We did not see many birds actually but close to the river we saw some ducks.

Buonasera volevo un' informazione
Per caso ci sono dei cartelli che dicono pericolo in caso di incidente rischio di apertura del fiume verso il mare . Grazie

Preciso innanzitutto che di platani non se ne vede alcuna traccia nella riserva ..credo che le conoscenze botaniche di qualche turista siano assolutamente farlocche...effettivamente si arriva in spiaggia attraversando un bosco artificiale di eucalipti. Comunque, a parte la precisazione, questo luogo è incantevole, peccato che chi dovrebbe curarlo e mantenerlo, vale a dire i sindaci di Cattolica Eraclea che si sono succeduti negli anni e i Siciliani che ne usufruiscono, lo adoperano come "discarica a cielo aperto" ...e si che è una riserva naturalistica se no chissa' in quale altro stato verserebbe. Dovremmo imparare ad avere rispetto delle bellezze che il pianeta e la natura ci ha consegnato essendo un bene unico e da preservare anche per le generazioni future. Le riserve come quella del Platani sono degli importanti ecosistemi di transizione che per la loro elevata' biodiversita' vanno tutelati con fermezza e convinzione. Inoltre,le strutture ristorative presenti peggiorano il paesaggio e non solo .... scarsa igiene e poco rispetto del turista...ma i Siciliani non erano gentili, accoglienti e con un cuore grande come una casa? Ma forse confondo i Siculi con i thailandesi
