Mangiabarche Lighthouse

Scoglio Mangiabarche, Italia

Description

White, time-worn, gently curving cliffs plunge into an intense blue sea. The Beach of Mangiabarche is lies on the Island of Sant'Antioco, in the territory of Calasetta, not far from the town's three beaches: Le Saline, Sottotorre and Spiaggia Grande. It is marked by a small amount of sand and crystal clear sea in the summer and majestic waves in the winter. The jewel of Calasetta faces onto a rock, Punta Mangiabarche, topped by a small, solitary lighthouse placed to protect boats from getting trapped on the semi-submerged rocks. In fact, the beach itself is named for its reputation as a danger to sailors and boats.

Continuing along the western side of the island, you'll come across another pearl of the Calasetta territory: Cala Lunga, an emerald green inlet that runs from open sea to a stretch of sand sheltered from the wind and currents of the sea, and surrounded by Mediterranean brush.

In the territory of Sant’Antioco, Coacuaddus is the largest beach, while Is Praneddas is an amazing terrace over the sea, 200m-high and full of the colours and scents of aromatic plants.

On the rocks of Capo Sperone, the southernmost tip of the island and a special wildlife reserve, you can spot the rare Eleonora's falcon and the peregrine falcon.
