Two small coves are formed by the small point on which stands Torre Rotunda. One cove is close SW and the other close NE of the tower. Small vessels can obtain shelter from winds between W through N to NE in the two coves on the E side of Capo Rizzuto. Shelter from NE is obtained from a shallow bank which extends about 750 m SE from a point on the coast about 650 m E of the village of Madonna Greca. However, the use of these anchorages is bound by the prohibitions existing in zone B of the Capo Rizzuto marine nature reserve. Local knowledge is required.
