<\/span>Dune di Piscinas<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe Costa Verde<\/a><\/strong> is a wild area, still authentic, stretching from Capo Frasca to the north and Capo Pecora to the south. Far from the main tourist routes, the Costa Verde is dotted with natural and architectural jewels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The gem of this area is the Dune di Piscinas: this desert of ochre sand is scattered with Mediterranean vegetation, giving way to turquoise water. The beauty that unfolds before your eyes has even attracted National Geographic, but the lack of accommodations nearby makes Piscinas a place far from mass tourism<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"Dune$

The area is perfect for a walk at dawn or sunset when the sunlight colors the dunes. The deep seabed is not suitable for small children, but lovers of surfing, windsurfing, and kitesurfing<\/strong> can enjoy their favorite sports thanks to the constant wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Cala Domestica<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
In the southernmost area of the Costa Verde, just 15 km away and a few minutes by car, lies Cala Domestica. This is a beach nestled in a fjord surrounded by limestone cliffs<\/strong>, where lush Mediterranean vegetation grows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Located near the town of Buggerru in the province of Carbonia-Iglesias, Cala Domestica is surrounded exclusively by wild nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"Cala$
Cala Domestica<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
From the main beach, you can take a path that winds through an ancient mining gallery to reach the twin cove<\/strong>, where you\u2019ll enjoy an even more intimate atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The clear waters of Cala Domestica are perfect for snorkeling enthusiasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Cala Sinzias<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe south of Sardinia offers hidden gems also in the Cagliari<\/strong> area. Near the renowned Villasimius<\/a>, you\u2019ll find Cala Sinzias, a beach still little frequented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"Cala$

Anyone visiting this stretch of land can venture away from the two main access points, to the north and south, for an even more intimate experience, enhanced by the eucalyptus scent<\/strong> coming from the pine forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Corbezzoli Beach<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Heading north, it becomes harder to find uncrowded beaches. A gem like Corbezzoli Beach seems impossible to find in the most touristy area of Sardinia, the northeastern coast, yet by driving, you can reach less-travelled spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the area of Santa Teresa di Gallura, visitors can reach this still untouched spot<\/strong>, characterised by sand with pink and cream hues and small pebbles. The cove is sheltered by Mediterranean vegetation and is still not a tourist hotspot, because it\u2019s not easy to reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From the free parking area just a few dozen meters from the beach, a path through the Mediterranean scrub<\/strong> leads you to an idyllic, much more intimate scenario compared to the average local beaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Cala Sisine<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
At the end of a valley that once hosted a river, Cala Sisine is about 200 meters wide and lies in front of the Serra Ovra cliffs<\/strong>, which drop straight into the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"Cala$ Cala Sisine<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The landscape resembles that of a mountain setting, yet the blinding white sand<\/strong> gives way to turquoise water and a seabed of light-coloured pebbles, perfect for diving and discovering marine life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Cala Coticcio<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe Maddalena Archipelago<\/a> consists of islands and islets with stunning views. The stretch of sea that separates Sardinia from Corsica, also known as the Bocche di Bonifacio, is a protected area that offers some of the most beautiful and hidden beaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among these stands Cala Coticcio on the island of Caprera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"Cala$
Cala Coticcio<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
With its fine white sand surrounded by pink rocks and Mediterranean shrubs, Cala Coticcio is ideal for those who want to combine relaxation with a bit of hiking. The cove can only be reached via a dirt trail<\/strong> through the rocks. Snorkelling enthusiasts can discover a real open-air aquarium, home to many species of fish and starfish<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nearby is the White House of Giuseppe Garibaldi, an interesting museum to visit along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Cala Corsara<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Changing islands but staying in the Maddalena Archipelago, another hard-to-reach spot is Cala Corsara. The bay, with its evocative name<\/strong>, can only be accessed by sea, but the wild scenery makes the journey worthwhile, offering extraordinary colours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
$\"Cala$
Cala Corsara<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Over time, the rocks surrounding the small beach have taken on unique shapes, as evidenced by the Witch\u2019s Rock<\/strong> on the western side of Cala Corsara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>La Speranza<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nOn the coast of Alghero<\/a><\/strong>, La Speranza is a beach with few essential services but an amazing panorama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the least visited spots in the area, the bay near Porto Poglina is characterised by pure white sand and waters that change hues depending on the light. La Speranza is one of the rare sandy stretches south of Alghero and is perfect for a day at the beach away from the crowd<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
