The three northern queens of the archipelago, Razzoli, Santa Maria and Budelli, are a triumph of colors and silences. In Budelli, the mythical Pink Beach (now protected and accessible only by boat) will leave you breathless with its pink-coral shades, created by microscopic fragments of coral and shells. Santa Maria, connected to Razzoli DA a thin strip of sand known as the “Pass of the Donkeys”, offers the thrill of walking on a shallow seabed, with water at the ankle, between two crystal clear seas. In Razzoli, however, wild scenery dominates: cliffs overlooking the sea, sea caves such as Grotta del Papa, and the picturesque Cala Cappello, ideal for a sunset dip. These islands, immersed in an almost surreal atmosphere, are the perfect place for those who want to feel like “the last human being on Earth”, far from conventional tourist routes DA.

A natural sanctuary of rare beauty, the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park is the only geomarine park in Italy, guardian of a unique ecosystem in the world. The undisputed protagonist is the sea: 180 km of indented coastline, 60 islands and islets carved by the wind, crystal clear waters that fade from turquoise to emerald. Here, every corner tells a story: from the underwater canyons of Spargi, a paradise for diving, to the Spiaggia Rosa in Budelli, famous for its coral grains and shells that dye the sand pink. Sailing through its coves, you can spot dolphins, sea turtles and migratory birds, while the commander will guide you to deserted coves where you can organize gourmet picnics or snorkeling sessions among tropical fish. The park is not just nature: it also houses historical remains, such as the remains of Roman ships and Napoleonic fortifications, perfect for a blast from the past between swims.
