Spiaggia La Caletta
About
La Caletta is one of Sardinia’s most celebrated beaches, stretching five kilometres of fine golden sand along the island’s eastern coast. Surrounded by a lush pine forest on one side and the turquoise, shallow sea on the other, it offers a safe and tranquil playground for families, young travellers and water‑sport enthusiasts alike. The beach’s gentle waves and crystal‑clear waters make it a popular spot for swimming, snorkeling and surfing, while the modern marina of La Caletta provides sailing, kite‑surfing, windsurfing and diving schools for newcomers and seasoned wind‑surfers. A large parking lot accommodates caravans and campers, and nearby villages such as San Giovanni di Posada add a touch of traditional, fishing‑town charm to the area.
