Worth it?
Snorkelers and confident hikers are the best fit. The cove is reachable only by boat or a challenging hike, and boat landings need advance booking, so it is not a spontaneous stop. Once there, the water is very clear and the shore is tiny white and pink pebbles, with freshwater springs along the edge. Creators put it in their top Sardinia beaches.
Before you go
- Book a boat landing in advance.
- Bring a mask for snorkeling.
- Look for the freshwater springs along the shoreline.
- Add Grotta del Fico, a cave also listed under Dorgali.
Highlights
- Crystal-clear water ideal for snorkeling
- Shore composed of tiny white and pink pebbles
- Accessible only by boat or challenging hike
- Mandatory advance booking required for boat landings
