Caletta delle Tartarughe

Caletta delle Tartarughe, sometimes referred to as Turtle Cove, lies along a less urbanized and more natural stretch of the Golfo Aranci coastline. It is a small inlet mainly characterized by pale granite rocks descending gently into the sea, with limited sandy patches between the boulders.

The water becomes deeper shortly after the shoreline and remains exceptionally clear. The seabed alternates between rock and sand, creating shades that range from emerald green to deep blue, enhanced by the reflection of light on the pale stone surfaces.

Behind the cove, Mediterranean vegetation grows compact among the rocks, contributing to a quiet and intimate setting. The absence of wide sandy stretches makes this spot less crowded than other beaches in Golfo Aranci, preserving its more natural character.

Reaching it by dinghy allows visitors to fully appreciate its seclusion and water clarity, anchoring at a safe distance from the rocks and enjoying a wilder stretch of coastline. It is an ideal stop to alternate bright sandy beaches like White Beach with more intimate inlets around the gulf.
