A pristine corner of paradise, a pearl not only of Ogliastra but of the whole island: the glow produced by the sun's rays on the surface of the water helps give the place an aura of enchantment that attracts visitors from all over the world

It is perhaps less well-known than other coves in the Gulf of Orosei – Luna, Goloritzè and Mariolu – but it will still make your vacation a dream thanks to the blue sea and a very white seabed of round pebbles. Cala Sisine is located at the end of a codula, or gully, which was once the bed of a river and is now the mouth of a small stream that originates on the Golgo plateau in the Supramonte di Baunei.

About 200 meters wide, it overlooks the cliffs of the Serra Ovra, which drop steeply from a height of over 500 meters to the sea, flanked, almost enveloped, by rocky ridges, while the gorge is covered by the green of centuries-old carob and holm oak trees. Paradoxically, one of the most beautiful seaside resorts of all has a unique mountain appearance. The waters are iridescent turquoise due to the play of light from the sun reflecting in them. The seabed is made of sand with light-colored limestone grains and rounded stones, ideal if you're diving with a mask and snorkel.

Like Cala Luna, Cala Sisine also has a refreshment point, an oasis surrounded by greenery but easily accessible from the beach. This space offers a relaxing retreat where you can refresh yourself and enjoy the tranquility of the place, allowing visitors to spend a day in complete comfort, without sacrificing contact with nature.

Departures from the harbor are at 9:00 AM, 10:00 AM, and 11:00 AM, and the return from the beach is scheduled for 4:00 PM or 5:00 PM; all times may vary depending on the season.

Cala Gonone is a windy location, but the mistral wind is never a problem for navigation, so you can enjoy a beautiful day under the sun.

Rates vary according to the season; during the summer season, €2.00 will be charged for disembarking at the beach.

It is advisable to always contact the ticket desk for accurate information on departure and re-entry times, weather and sea conditions, and the regular schedule of trips.
