Pane e Pomodoro for a city beach visit

Pane e Pomodoro has the clearest transport information of these three beach options. According to AMTAB, line 42 runs on the Piscine Comunali–P&R Pane&Pomodoro route, and shuttle B serves the beach’s Park & Ride.

If you are driving, Park & Ride lets you park near the city and take a bus toward the city centre. Parking and travel cost €1; the driver rides free on the bus between the parking area and the city centre and back. Up to four additional passengers can pay €0.30 each for the bus.

A €15 monthly subscription includes a parking space and scheduled shuttle service to and from the city centre, but it does not reserve a specific space. Park & Ride tickets and subscriptions are valid only at the site where they were issued.

The Pane e Pomodoro parking area has a daily €1 tariff on days when Park & Ride is operating, and a €15 subscription. Its published opening hours are Monday through Saturday, 05:15–23:30.
