The Gulf of Orosei: 40km of limestone cliffs dropping into turquoise water, coves accessible ONLY by boat or multi-hour hikes. No roads, no buildings. Cala Mariolu, Cala Goloritze, Cala Luna — the best beaches in Europe.
Best beach in Italy — multiple awards. White marble pebbles, boat from Cala Gonone (25-40 return). First boat 8:30am.
UNESCO monument. 143m pinnacle, natural arch. 1.5h hike or boat. Zero facilities. Perfection.
Crescent + caves + oleanders (pink in June). Boat 15-25 return or 3h hike from Cala Fuili.
Canyon mouth beach. Wider, less crowded than Cala Luna. Trail leads into Supramonte wilderness.
The secret one. Small, rocky. Most tours skip it. Ask the captain to stop.
The starting point for the Cala Luna hike. Small cove, car parking. A beach in its own right.
Base: Cala Gonone (harbor for boat tours). Full-day boat 35-60 with 4-5 cove stops. Book at harbor the evening before.
