A golden and fine strip of sand, 150 meter long, typical of the province of Southern Sardinia. We are in Cala Cipolla, one of the most enchanting beaches of the Golfo degli Angeli, about fifty kilometers from Cagliari.

The extreme point of the island overlooking Africa is called Cape Spartivento because, in this area, Aeolus has never been desired. The gusts get the crystalline sea choppy merging the wonder of turquoise with that of emerald green. Cala Cipolla is unique. Protected by mighty granite rocks, the bay is always sheltered from the wind of the coast. A small paradise for those who want to go underwater fishing or wish a quiet day on the water edge, it is the last bastion before Cape Spartivento.

All around the Mediterranean vegetation releases balsamic scents. Pine, juniper and lentisco frame the landscape and offer a glance that is unique in the world. From Cape Spartivento the gaze widens to the beaches of Su Giudeu and S'Acqua Durci, which draw the profile of the southern coast with an alternation of sand and inlets that look like atolls.

Named in this way (Cipolla means onion) for its rounded shape, a reminder of an ampoule or an onion, or perhaps the name of an ancient castaway from the place, Cala Cipolla looks towards the rocks of the Padiglioni and the Ferraglione islets, which give way to the sea. On the fine golden sand, next to the Mediterranean vegetation, the sea lily also grows, a frequent guest of the Sardinian coastal flora.

Cala Cipolla brings together many of the wonders for which Sardinia is famous in the world: the uncontaminated sea, the vegetation where you can find shelter during the hottest days, the millenary rocks. A place that offers beauty and happiness.
