Cala Granara

Cala Granara sits on the island of Spargi in the Maddalena Archipelago, where three separate white-sand sections are divided by wild maquis scrub and granite outcrops tumbling into the sea. The water is that classic Sardinian turquoise — shallow and clear enough to see every grain of sand — and the cove is sheltered enough to stay calm even when the wind picks up elsewhere. It feels like a place you weren't supposed to find, which is part of why it's so good.
