Sardinia's Stunner: Cala Goloritzé Named World's Best Beach!
Okay, guys, get this – Cala Goloritzé, this totally secluded beach in Sardinia, just won the title of "world's best beach" from a panel of 1,000 coastal experts! I know, right? Honestly, who saw that coming? But seriously, it's not just hype; this place is ridiculously beautiful. Prepare to have your mind blown.
A Beach That'll Steal Your Heart
Picture this: you're on the breathtaking Baunei Coast, and suddenly, there it is – Cala Goloritzé. Unbelievably clear turquoise water, so blue it's almost unreal. And towering over it all? This dramatic 143-meter limestone pinnacle. It’s like something out of a movie. The beach itself is a perfect mix of white pebbles and sand, with this amazing natural archway. The judges from the World's 50 Best Beaches list called it "raw beauty that touches you emotionally," and I totally get it.
Getting There: Part of the Adventure
Now, getting to Cala Goloritzé isn't your average beach stroll. They've kept access limited to protect this paradise. You can hike – it’s a challenging but rewarding 90-minute trek. Or you can arrive by boat, but there are strict regulations to keep things from getting too crowded. They limit the daily visitor numbers, so it feels exclusive and peaceful – which is a huge plus in my book.
Beyond the Beach: Exploring Sardinia
And let's be real, Sardinia is so much more than just one incredible beach. After you've soaked up the sun at Cala Goloritzé, you can explore the dramatic Capo Caccia cliffs – they’re seriously stunning. There's also Neptune's Grotto, which is fascinating, and the Gennargentu National Park for some amazing adventures. With almost 1,900km of coastline, there are tons of gorgeous beaches and charming villages waiting to be discovered. Plus, Olbia Airport is only an hour and a half away – making it super easy to get to this amazing island.
Ready for Your Sardinian Escape?
Cala Goloritzé being named the world's best beach really highlights just how special this place is. It’s a testament to their commitment to conservation and sustainable tourism.
