Via Cucinotti is a coastal bathing water located in Rometta, Sicily, between the Boncoddo and Saponara streams. The unconfined marine water features a predominantly pebble seabed that slopes gradually and regularly. The emerged beach consists of medium sand and gravel, while the submerged beach is composed of fine sand. The beach width ranges from 50 to 100 metres and experiences generalised erosion along the shoreline, which is countered by several breakwater barriers.
