Cala Domestica

✨ Hidden gem

Cala Domestica is a strikingly sheltered bay on Sardinia's southwest coast, tucked into the rugged Sulcis Iglesiente cliffs about 2km south of the small town of Buggerru. The sandy seabed and calm turquoise water make it one of the more swimmable spots along this stretch of coastline. You'll find on-site bars and restaurants with reasonable prices, plus lounger rentals — so you can stay as long as you want without hauling supplies. Day parking runs just five euros, making it easy to base yourself here for a full lazy afternoon.
