Cala Giacone

★★★★☆ (119)

This site is on the north east side of the island, enclosed in a bay. The conformation of the seabed is very particular: this is the only site with an expanse of sand. The wall is full of passages, created by a landslide of boulders, and canyons that create an amusing landscape that offers splendid views.

Here the fauna is a little different from the other sites: sole, pomegranate crabs, astropecten, red mullet, gurnards. In the passages instead moray eels, porter crabs, slipper lobster.
