Beach overall scores
Cala Luna (Nuoro) is located outside the Cala Gonone settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Sardinia island, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"The beach would be a sight to behold if it weren't for the overwhelming crowds. Boats teeming with people dock every half hour, saturating the area with a constant influx of visitors. However, the caves provide a welcome respite from the sun's rays, making it an ideal spot for families with young ones."
Sunny Summers
"This is a fantastic spot that can only be accessed by boat. We departed from Cala Gonone, which is quite nearby. The beach is covered in white pebbles and offers stunning views. There are plenty of areas to explore and enjoy."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Cala Luna (Sardinia island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Cala Luna (Sardinia island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Cala Luna for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
