Cala Sambuco

3.3 (20 reviews)

Cala Sambuco is a wild and photogenic little bay tucked along the La Marmorata coastline near Santa Teresa Gallura, framed by the chunky granite boulders that define this corner of Sardinia. The water runs clear and shallow over white sand, and the surrounding rock formations give it a naturally sheltered feel. It's the kind of spot you stumble on and don't want to leave — remote enough to stay quiet, but close enough to Santa Teresa if you want a meal or supplies.
