Cala di Volpe
Cala di Volpe is one of Costa Smeralda's most iconic bays, framed by low rocky headlands and crystalline turquoise water that shifts between aquamarine and deep blue. The bay is famously anchored by the Hotel Cala di Volpe, a sprawling Moorish-style luxury resort designed by Jacques Couelle in the 1960s that looks like it grew straight out of the hillside. You're within easy reach of Capriccioli Beach and the broader Costa Smeralda coastline, one of the most glamorous stretches of Mediterranean shoreline in Europe.
