Cala Lunga
La Maddalena
Cala Lunga is a picturesque sandy beach on Sant'Antioco Island, known for its clear, calm waters and family-friendly atmosphere.
Location
Cala Lunga, nestled between Calasetta and Sant'Antioco, is a true coastal gem. It captivates with its fine, light sand and crystal-clear sea, which shimmers in fascinating turquoise tones. The calm and shallow waters make it an ideal spot for families with children and anyone looking for a relaxing swim in the sea.
The gently sloping seabed invites lingering and, together with its sheltered location, provides a perfect environment for a carefree beach day. Away from the sandy beach, in areas with rocky bottoms, the water progressively deepens. This creates excellent conditions for snorkeling, scuba diving, and spearfishing, so adventurers will also find what they're looking for. The beach promises a peaceful and natural experience, away from the hustle and bustle, especially during the off-season.
