Detailed itinerary

1

You will explore the coves and beaches that were twice named the most beautiful in Italy. The waters of Chia are pristine and a shimmering, crystal clear, blue color. Dive in and enjoy. Complementing that stunning turquoise water is the peach-colored sand, and scattered among the dunes are lush green juniper trees.

2

The colors are striking. Heading to the beach is a tradition of the locals and visitors alike. You will see why the coves and beaches in Chia are famous. Time allowing, you will stop at up to 5 of the prettiest coves, depending on how much time you spend at each. If you choose the private option tour, you can decide to spend more time at one cove or even skip one if you wish. One of the bays you will visit is Cala Cipolla, from here you can admire the lighthouse of Capo Spartivento.

Built-in 1854 by the Italian Navy, the Lighthouse of Capo Spartivento was one of twenty lighthouses wanted by Victor Emmanuel II of Savoy, whose wrought-iron initials still feature above the entrance door.
The target of the American planes’ machine guns during World War II was restored only once, right after the conflict.
It housed the lighthouse keepers until the 1980s when the light signal was automated, and their work was no longer required. It faded into oblivion for over 30 years, until 2006, when its new life began.
A metamorphosis that started years ago, a childhood dream set aside for a long time, an ambitious project that has become a reality thanks to the passion and dedication of those who put their heart and soul in it.
Today, with its guiding light still shining, Faro Capo-Spartivento is the first and the only lighthouse in Italy converted into a guest house: a project prized by the Italian Navy as a fine example of military architectural restoration.

This cove offers one of the best places to snorkel in South Sardinia. Your guide can provide you the snorkel gear, or you are welcome to bring your own or just spread out your towel on the sand, kick back, and relax! Another fantastic beach is Malfatano, ideal for families with children due to its calm waters, and it offers incredible vistas of Capo Malfatano bay. Tuerredda is one of the most beautiful beaches in the area, and it also offers excellent snorkeling.
You will find restroom facilities at some beaches (Cala Cipolla, Tuerredda, and Malfatano), although some may be rustic.
