The best beaches and coves in Italy

Spiaggia dei COnigli
Have you decided to spend your summer vacation in Italy? Very good choice! And it is that beyond having an important cultural and artistic heritage, this country offers a temperate climate most of the year and has beaches that have little to envy to those in other corners of the planet. In fact, some of the sandy areas of the Italian coast are considered by many to be among the best on the planet.

Taking into account that Italy has 7,500 kilometers of coastline, it is not surprising that throughout the country we can find beaches and coves of all kinds. Today in Hard Hobbit To Break we want to tell you about the best ones. Do you want to join us?

Spiaggia dei Conigli

Spiaggia dei COnigli1
How could it be otherwise, we will start by talking about what for many is one of the best beaches on the planet. We refer to the Spiaggia dei Conigli (Playa de los Conejos), a beautiful sandy area that offers a typical image of Postcard. Located in Sicily, specifically on the island of Lampedusa, Playa de los Conejos stands out for its wild aspect, which it has been able to conserve thanks to its isolation. And it is only accessible by boat.


Cala Rossa

Cala Rossa
Also in Sicily is Cala Rossa, specifically on the island of Favignana, belonging to the natural reserve of the Égades Islands. Wild in appearance, this wide bay stands out above all for the color of its waters, which goes from dark blue to turquoise, going through a magical greenish hue.

Cala Mariolu

Cala Mariolu
In Baunei, a municipality on the island of Sardinia, we find Cala Mariolu, a beach with crystal clear waters and numerous caves perfect for all kinds of people, especially for children, since the water is quiet and shallow; and for divers. Although it can be reached on foot via a professionally suitable hiking trail, most people access the beach by boat.

La Pelosa

La Pelosa
Another beach that could not miss on the list is La Pelosa, a sandy area located in Stintio, on the island of Sardinia. Located between two islands, it offers fine white sands and calm turquoise waters. Of course, we cannot speak of this beach without mentioning the Torre la Pelosa, a construction that has been kept to the north of the sandy area since the 15th century. In addition, you must bear in mind that diving in this place is almost an obligation.


Tropea Beach

Trope
From Sardinia we moved to the west coast of Calabria, where Tropea is located, a town that in addition to having one of the best old towns preserved of the country, it offers crystal clear waters and fine white sands ideal for lying in the sun. In addition, from Tropea you can contemplate a beautiful sunset.

Golortizé cove

Goloritze cove
We also want to talk about Cala Goloritzé, a beautiful beach located in Baunei, in Sardinia. What we like most about this place is that it is a practically virgin beach, with thick white sand and beautiful views. In addition, its waters are a beautiful turquoise blue due to underwater springs.

Bay of Silence

Baia del Silenzio
In Sestri Levante, about 60 kilometers south of Genoa, we find the Bahía del Silencio (Baia del Silenzio), a beach with clean waters that is surprising for being surrounded by colorful houses cake and having numerous fishing boats on the sand, which gives it a very picturesque touch.

Porto Giunco

Porto Giunco
Finally, we want to talk about Porto Giunco, a beautiful beach located in the municipality of Villasimius. With white sand, this sandy area is surrounded by crystal clear waters that will leave you with your mouth open. In addition, nearby is the Notteri swamp, where many pink flamingos live.
