The formation of the Cala Unia Beach is characterized by the dense vegetation behind it, located in a relatively inaccessible area, it reminds us of an unspoiled small cove, the distance and isolation make it suitable for the adventurous.

With a length of 80 meters and an average width of approximately 8 meters, it has a surface area of 640 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 80 people comfortably.

The Sand

White sand
Pebbles

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

The Sea

Water Turquoise
Water Shallow
Seabed Rocky

The sea has a Turquoise color, with a predominantly rocky seabed.

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

Restrictions and Protection

No Sand Collection
No Shell Collection

The Cala Unia Beach is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 80 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 Spettacolare sotto qualsiasi aspetto. Natura incontaminata, mare cristallino, pochissima gente. Non accessibile ai bambini, per il percorso a piedi abbastanza lungo e sotto il sole e soprattutto per la difficoltà di scendere alla caletta. Per tutto il resto un vero paradiso.

it Spiaggia molto bella anche se con rifiuti portati dal mare. Con accesso tutt'altro che facile. Dopo aver percorso in auto una strada sterrata continuare il percorso a piedi. Giunti a un cancello arrugginito e in parte divelto, scegliere il passaggio (poco visibile) sulla destra. Dopo pochi minuti, superare la siepe che si abbassa sulla sinistra e percorrere il sentiero in salita. Giunti sulla scogliera cercare di individuare, nel centro della baia, in basso, due tronchi da raggiungere per arrivare alla spiaggia (la freccia arancione nella quinta foto indica il punto da cui iniziare la discesa alla spiaggia e quella gialla i tronchi da percorrere nel tratto finale) . Portarsi almeno dell'acqua da bere e magari qualcosa da mangiare.

it Dopo 15 minuti di cammino, passando per il Nuraghe Unia, si incontra un tratto di costa incontaminato adiacente all'Isola dei Porri. Diverse calette separano le ripide scogliere che cadono sul mare. Per poter raggiungere la spiaggia bisogna accedere tramite una scaletta improvvisata ma molto resistente!

it Scomoda da raggiungere e difficile la discesa in spiaggia. Bella spiaggia di sassolini, ma mare basso e roccioso.
