Cala Sapone

4.2 (485 reviews)

Cala Sapone is a secluded little gem tucked along the southern coast of Sant'Antioco island, with fine sand and remarkably clear, shallow water teeming with fish just beneath the surface. It's well-equipped for a beach day despite its natural, unhurried feel — you get the rare combo of somewhere that feels off the beaten path but isn't rough around the edges. The seabed makes it great for snorkeling, and the calm conditions keep the water inviting even when the rest of Sulcis is windier.
