THE BEACH THAT "PLAYS" AN ANCIENT MELODY

Cala Violina takes its name from a detail that makes it unique: little grains of quartz that play a melody at every step. Sound beaches are an ancient phenomenon, already related by Marco Polo. There are just a hundred similar places in the world, and Cala Violina is one of them.

Cala Violina, in the Mediterranean scrub of the Scarlino nature reserve, is a strip of beach facing an uncontaminated sea, enclosed between two promontories. Cala Violina can be reached only on foot or by bike.
