Le Farfalle - Cala Suaraccia Beach
About
Le Farfalle Beach, or Cala Suaraccia, is a tranquil crescent of fine, pale sand tucked into a sheltered bay on the northern coast of Capo Coda Cavallo in San Teodoro. Surrounded by Mediterranean scrub and shielded from the north‑westerly wind, the beach offers crystal‑clear turquoise waters that are calm and shallow, making it ideal for families, snorkelers and sun‑bathers alike. A small pier provides a convenient docking point for boats and is the launching pad for local diving and boat tours. The view of the nearby islands of Molara and Tavolara adds a postcard‑like backdrop to the scene, while nearby services—including parking, refreshment spots, umbrella and lounge chair rentals, and a nearby diving centre—ensure a comfortable visit. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks along the beach, explore the marine protected area, or take a boat trip to the islands, making it a versatile destination for all ages.
