Crystal clear waters, pink sand, a series of coves and rocks, blue cliffs rising from deep seabeds, mesmerizing colours the Maddalena Islands are a must for whoever wants to discover the beauties of the Sardinian Sea. The islands are located inside the Straits of Bonifacio along the north-eastern coast of Sardinia.
The Maddalena islands were known by the Romans as “Cunicularia” and were utilised as a maritime traffic crossing point during the second and first century B.C. La Maddalena now derives much of its income from tourism and from the U.S. Naval base on Santo Stefano. The only method of traveling to La Maddalena is by boat, with car ferries travelling from nearby Palau and from the Italian mainland.
