Secluded and with a wild appearance, thanks to the surrounding scenery, Cala Sassari will surprise you with the colours that the sea, sand and cliffs take on in the sunlight. The beach is about 500 metres long, with mixed golden and whitish-coloured grains of sand with some hints of brown. The bay is surrounded by Mediterranean scrub, which also covers the rocky peaks that surround it, giving the sea reflections of emerald green and turquoise. The transparent waters reveal a sandy seabed sloping gently towards the open sea and are shallow near the shoreline, allowing children to swim and play peacefully and the whole family to enjoy some relaxation. The beach is well sheltered from the wind and offers various services: parking, bars and restaurants, deckchair, beach umbrella and boat rentals and services linked to accessibility.

Cala Sassari is a destination for diving, snorkelling and underwater fishing enthusiasts, but it is also an ideal destination for enjoying splendid views: in front of you, you will see an islet known as Punta Pedrosa, from the name of the promontory to the south; further in the distance, you will see the majestic profile of the island of Tavolara, while looking north, you’ll see the village of Golfo Aranci and the islet of Figarolo.

You can easily reach the beach by following provincial road SP 82 between Olbia and Golfo Aranci and taking the well-signposted exit heading east. The surroundings offer countless other coastal treasures... the area of Golfo Aranci alone has more than twenty beaches. On the sides of Cala Sassari, in addition to the little cove of Punta Pedrosa, you will also find the Spiaggia Bianca (White Beach); to the south you will find the small Sos Aranzos, with white sand and a transparent sea. Near the town, lie the Cinque Spiagge (Five Beaches) one after the other, perfect for a holiday filled with relaxation and fun, thanks to all the services and convenience. If you are looking for wild coves surrounded by uncontaminated nature, you can head towards Capo Figari and explore the other ‘Aranci’ pearls: Cala Sabina, Cala Moresca and Cala del Sonno.
