Hello, I'm Fabrizio, I've been living in Sardinia for over 34 years and I wanted to share my experience of Sardinian beaches with you!

I will guide you in discovering your perfect beach!

Characteristics and Type of Beach

Small cove
Surface Area: 280 sqm
orientation north-east
cat Napoletana Cove

The formation of the Napoletana Cove 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 70 meters and an average width of approximately 4 meters, it has a surface area of 280 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 35 people comfortably.

The Sand

White sand
Very fine sand

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

The Sea

Water Turquoise
Water Shallow
Seabed Sandy bottom

The sea has a Turquoise color, with a predominantly sandy 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 Napoletana Cove is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 35 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.

By Sea

You can also reach the beach by sea using small boats, either private or rented, utilizing the dedicated launching corridor on the beach. Furthermore, it should be noted that the launching corridor is generally intended for transit purposes for unloading/loading. The boat should be anchored according to the instructions of the beach staff. In the absence of a launching corridor, the boat should be moored at a certain distance from the coast.

it Una delle spiagge più belle mai viste, acqua cristallina e sabbia bianca, nonostante il percorso un po' impervio ne è valsa assolutamente la pena. Attenti ai facoceri, non dateli da mangiare, noi li abbiamo dato un pezzo di pane e ci ha squartato la borsa frigo

it Il suo mare è talmente trasparente che le barche in sosta al largo sembrano levitare nell’aria. Se non fosse per i numerosi, variopinti pesci che affollano il fondale, le acque di Cala Napoletana sarebbero del tutto simili a quelle di una piscina. Il paesaggio circostante, invece, fa pensare a un paradiso terrestre: sabbia candida, sottile e soffice, rocce granitiche dalle tinte rosate e dalle forme sinuose, pazientemente levigate dal vento e dalle onde, rigogliosi, verdissimi cespugli di macchia mediterranea che cingono alle spalle la piccola insenatura. L’arenile, in realtà, è diviso in tre spiaggette, separate da rocce e grandi massi di granito. Il fondale è basso e sabbioso, digrada dolcemente ed è perfetto per lo snorkeling, grazie alla straordinaria trasparenza dell’acqua. Mentre per chi desidera rilassarsi e ammirare il panorama, è consigliato attendere le ore centrali della giornata, quando i raggi del sole accentuano i colori naturali della spiaggia attraverso magici giochi di luce. La spiaggia occupa l’angolo nord-occidentale dell’isola di Caprera

it Bellissima caletta, merita sicuramente una visita se siete in zona. La camminata è fattibile, con scarpe o ciabatte chiuse, e non troppo impegnativa, certo che sotto il sole diventa faticosa. NB, solo un consiglio : lasciate l auto posteggiata solo sullo sterrato o fuori dalla strada asfaltata, basta una ruota sul asfalto o strada comunale è siete in multa! Buona gita!

it Si lascia l’auto o la moto o la bici presso la fortezza Arbuticci - Memoriale di Garibaldi. Si segue il sentiero ben segnalato per circa 45 minuti. La spiaggia è un po’ piccola per il numero di persone che vi arrivano ma il mare è sicuramente da non perdere. Merita una visita certamente!

it Dopo una bella camminata di almeno mezz'ora con buon passo si raggiunge una caletta fantastica. Se si va a Caprera e una tappa da fare assolutamente.
