San Giovanni Li Cuti is a picturesque urban beach in Catania, famous for its black volcanic sand and distinctive lava pebbles, from which its name "li cuti" is derived. Beneath the beach lie layers of ancient lava, dating back to eruptions that predate the city's founding. San Giovanni Li Cuti is an ideal spot for a swim, a sunset walk, or a seaside dinner.
