Cala di Spalmatore o della Caletta

Tucked between Punta Spalmatore di Fuori and Punta dei Cannoni on the island of San Pietro, this sheltered bay offers sandy shallows that slope gently into clear water, making it easy going for a swim or a snorkel around the rocks. Behind the beach sits a small coastal pond that attracts birdlife, giving the spot a quietly wild feel despite a bar and sunbed rentals being close at hand. The coarse-grained sand holds up well underfoot, and the setting stays scenic without feeling overdeveloped.
