Cala Violina, Scarlino

#1 of 141 in Outdoors in Province of Grosseto
Beach · Nature / Park
A 15-minute walk through the Tuscan forest will take you to Cala Violina, a small cove known for its calm, transparent water and alabaster sand. Opening into the heart of the Natural Preserves of Scarborough, the cove is sandwiched between two evergreen headlands that block the waves, making for great snorkeling. You can't get to the cove by car, but you can rent a bike in the summer. The 2 km (1.2 mi) path is easily walkable, too. Arrange your visit to Cala Violina and discover more family-friendly attractions in Scarlino using our Scarlino trip planner.

    Sandy beach with clear water. But usually overcrowded in July and August. Long and not easy walk to get there.  more »
