Balata dei Turchi

Absolutely gorgeous spot. Takes a long time to access it, but the vertiginous views along the dirt road make it worth it. The water is super clear, with intense marine life along some walls just by the spot you enter the water (by the way, its easier to just jump to the right and then pull you back up with the ropes, rather than entering through the slippery shallow pool on the left). Some cliff jumping opportunities and little coves to explore to the west. No shade. Loved it.

Fantastic spot for a swim, snorkel, cliff jump and cave exploring. Need a car to get to it as it has a long dirt road with the carpark at the very end but worth the trip.

I used a scooter to get down there no problem, sure it’s bumpy but I was fine going down and up! Worth the visit as it is STUNNING and the waves are fantastic as they splash up into the rocks! The rope to help you into the water is very handy as it’s quite slippery to walk into! Bella Bella!

Natural beauty at its best. Great location to swim in crystal clear waters surrounding the island. Don’t be too alerted about “difficult descend road” and “you need 4x4” — the road is pretty accessible and not much different from many other roads on the island. We had no difficulty ascending snd descending on a fully loaded Fiat 500 featuring an engine from a lawnmower (it seems). No cellular reception, so prepare to be one on one with nature. Bring some water and shade if you plan to stay for longer. There’s no outlets selling anything around, you’re on your own.

Beautiful, rocky and exposed to the wind. I'd suggest watching the weather forecast before coming. If you have difficulty walking id strongly suggest visiting another place. The road itself is not as bad as some make it out to be. Beware that there is no cell reception from the main road and all the way down so you're on your own in case of emergency (like other places near the southern/southeast side of the island.

I know this island since I was a child probably is one of the most beautiful beaches and definitely its best spot to go spearfishing good luck

It’s nice but I think there are other better (less exposed) spots along this part of the coast. Painful drive in anything except a 4x4. Has a life ring.

The place it’s ok, very peaceful and with some dramatic views of the coastal cliffs. However is not the easiest to reach..
