The formation of the Cala Sapone Beach, it reminds us of a relatively large cove, the proximity to parking lots, services, and its size make it suitable for those who prefer comfort over adventure.

With a length of 125 meters and an average width of approximately 11 meters, it has a surface area of 1375 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 172 people comfortably.

The Sand

Yellow sand
Fine sand

The Beach is composed of Fine sand sand of Yellow sand color, with vegetation behind it, mainly characterized by Mediterranean scrub.

The Sea

Water Green
Water Shallow
Seabed Sand and rocks

The sea has a Green color, with a mixed seabed of sand and rocks.

The bathymetric lines are far apart, so the depth gradually decreases, classifying it as a beach with shallow water.

The Cala Sapone Beach is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 172 people is purely indicative and is determined using the guidelines of beach resorts, assuming approximately 8 square meters per person, taking into account beach chairs or towels, umbrellas, and a perimeter passage area.

It should also be noted that on all Sardinian coasts, Article 40 of Regional Law No. 16 of July 28, 2017, paragraph 2, states: Except where the act constitutes a more serious offense, anyone who removes, possesses, sells even small quantities of sand, pebbles, stones, or shells from the coast or the sea without proper authorization or concession issued by the competent authorities is subject to an administrative fine of 500 to 3,000 euros.

it Cala sapone è una piccola baia di Sant'Antioco. Vi Consiglio di noleggiare nel chiosco situato di fronte alla spiaggia (da Mario e Pinella) un pedalò o canoe e farvi il giro della costa: troverete grotte e fondali bellissimi. A fine serata cena da Mario e Pinella per mangiare bene e godersi il tramonto.

it Spiaggia all'interno di un'insenatura. Spiaggia di sabbia. Mare che scende lungo. In mare fondale sabbia misto sassi. Una buona parte dell'insenatura è a scogli. Adatta anche a bambini. Ottimo per snorkeling e nuoto, l'insenatura e chiusa da una striscia rocciosa fronte mare. Una delle meno ventose incontrate finora.

it Ottima cala dalle acque azzurre. Una insenatura riparata dai venti e mare di tutti i quattro quadranti e provvista di arenile. Tutta le rocce di Cala Sapone che racchiudono lo specchio d'acqua sono lisce da poter camminare scalzi. Una rara bellezza adatta per la balneazione

it Acqua torbida gia di prima mattina su tutta la superficie marina fino agli scogli. Impossibile fare un po di snorkling decente. Nel pomeriggio si è riempita di gente. Do una stella in più per la possibilità di fare una lunga camminata sulla scogliera, dove è però necessario avere le scarpette, se no risulta dolorosa.
