Cala Coticcio beach
10 Samantha Lirico

Spiaggia di Cala Brigantina
10 Aurelian Tudor

The pristine waters of this beach are crystal clear, and even in windy conditions, the tranquil atmosphere remains undisturbed. Although it requires a 20-minute stroll to reach this secluded haven, the journey is well worth it.

Cala Caprese
10 Lirandia

This serene beach has a stunning sandy shoreline with crystal-clear turquoise waters that invite you to take a dip. The beach shack restaurant offers a shaded oasis with roughly 10 tables, where you can indulge in delicious food and refreshing drinks. If you're in need of some extra comfort, you can rent chairs and umbrellas for a standard rate of 30€, which includes two chaise lounges with head shade covers. The only downside is the hum of the generator, which can detract from the natural tranquility of the surroundings. Despite a slight sulfur smell, this beach is still a must-visit spot. Before you go, make sure to stop at I Mille on the road for the best sandwiches you'll ever taste! Parking can be a bit of a challenge, so arrive early to secure a spot.
