From Marseille to Patmos, here are 10 restaurants we can’t wait to eat in, all right by the water.
LessLocated right on Platis Gialos Beach, Omega 3 is a casual bar-style joint that specialises in fish small plates and Greek wines — a winning combination. Expect delights such as cacio e pepe calamari.
Some people say Da Adolfo has the best food on the entire Coast, and we fully agree. Just a short 5-minute complimentary boat ride from Positano, the restaurant is located on a tiny pebbled beach.
Another highlight was La Marina by Cala Feola. Another laid-back trattoria right on the rocks with blue tables and chairs and a rambunctious atmosphere. Start with a drink on the tables outside by the sea, watching local kids dive and bomb into the water, before moving in for colorful platters of spaghetti al vongole.
The place to eat, drink and swim off the rocks (French designer Simon Port Jacquemus is a fan) as well as try and bag one of the five stylish cabanes. You’ll be perfectly placed for exploring Marseille and the area’s feted calanques, limestone cliffs that tower above the glittering sea.
Right below the iconic Faraglioni, Da Luigi is one of the liveliest beach clubs on the island of Capri and serves excellent seafood and is a feast for the eyes.
Tucked away in the picturesque fishing village of Marina Grande this restaurant offers the freshest locally sourced food. From the sea to the table. The food is beautifully prepared by award-winning renowned chef Tommaso De Turris.
This is where time goes back to the basics of the original Greek taverna. Lampi is a great post-swim retreat for a tasty seafood and meze lunch! Make sure you eat the flambeed feta cheese.
Go early, have a martini at the bar — tell the barman you want ‘Andria’s Gin Martini. Order the saffron prawn orzo and then ask Paris and Despina to do the rest.
Four Seasons, not to be confused with the luxury hotel chain, this super delicious taverna is the perfect setting for an idyllic lunch on the island of Hydra. Order the Four Seasons salad and the marinated shrimp.
With its location between the dunes and the waves, its indoor-outdoor layout, and rustic-chic interior design, Sublime Beach Club quickly became the spot for leisurely lunches and sublime sunsets.
