Capriccioli - spiaggia il Pirata
Golfo Aranci
Spiaggia del Pirata, located in the western part of the Capriccioli area on the Costa Smeralda, is a small, idyllic beach, perfect for those seeking tranquility.
Location
Spiaggia del Pirata, sometimes known as Capriccioli West, is a picturesque stretch of the famous Capriccioli bay on the Costa Smeralda. Unlike the often busier main beaches of Capriccioli, this smaller beach offers a more intimate atmosphere and is a true gem for relaxed hours by the sea.
Nestled in the breathtaking landscape of Gallura, Spiaggia del Pirata captivates with its fine, light sand and crystal-clear, turquoise waters. Its sheltered location below Hotel Capriccioli makes it an ideal spot for swimming and snorkeling, where you can discover the colorful underwater world. Here, the natural beauty of Sardinia can be fully enjoyed.
While the main Capriccioli beach often scores with its three bays and livelier activity, Spiaggia del Pirata impresses with its quieter and more exclusive ambiance. It is located only about 250 meters west of the main beach, offering a simple alternative for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle. A visit here promises an unforgettable beach experience on the northern coast of Sardinia.
