Cala Sisine

Baunei Moderate 1h 30min on foot / 20min by boat

A cathedral of white limestone 200 metres wide, framed by a forest of centuries-old

holm oaks that reach almost to the water's edge. The "mouth" of the Sisine canyon creates a

unique setting: the 500-metre-high rock walls open like a curtain onto the sea.
