Cala Goloritzè, accessible only by hiking, offers a deep blue haven for snorkelers. Its iconic feature, Aguglia, is a rocky arch rising from the sea. Meanwhile, Porto Giunco Beach provides shallow, calm waters and pedal boat rentals, with adjacent salt marshes teeming with birdlife.
Cala Luna, a hidden oasis, invites exploration of its marine caves on foot or by kayak. Tuerredda Beach, a tropical paradise, offers a small island for snorkeling and colorful umbrellas lining its shore. Cala Brandinchi, often compared to a Caribbean beach, features white sand and dunes housing unique ecosystems.
In the north, the La Maddalena Archipelago presents breathtaking panoramas over unique beaches with emerald-green waters and pink granite cliffs. Capo Testa, known for its dramatic coastal scenery, offers hiking trails with views stretching as far as Corsica and access to secluded bays like Cala Spinosa. La Pelosa Beach, with its shallow, crystal-clear waters, offers a nearby island accessible during low tide.
