it Cala d'Inferno è un'insenatura formatasi fra le falesie calcaree verticali della penisola di Capo Caccia. Siamo nell'Area Marina Protetta "Capo Caccia-Isola Piana" e nel Parco Naturale Regionale di Porto Conte. Luogo di Notevole interesse paesaggistico e geologico, qui sono ben in rilievo le stratigrafie delle varie fasi di deposizione dei sedimenti carbonatici del Giurese. In evidenza spettacolari piegamenti e faglie nei calcari mesozoici. Interesse paleontologico per la presenza di Ippuriti, anche di notevoli dimensioni. A sud della Cala l'isola Foradada. Lasciando l'auto al Belvedere Foradada, si accede alla Cala tramite un sentiero direzione nord. È possibile scendere nella cala, ma il sentiero è sdrucciolevole e franoso. Spettacolari fondali per lo snorkelling: ricchi di Flora e fauna marina. Lo sguardo si perde passando dall'azzurro che lascia intravedere i fondali e le verticali falesie sommerse fino al blu più profondo degli abissi.
