Balata dei turchi

The Cliffs of the Giants

Audioguide about the place

  • No signal
  • Difficult descent
When the mistral wind blows, this is one of the most beautiful spots on the island for swimming. Located in the south of the island, it is said that it was once a natural port of call used by pirates, but today it is a bay with seabed and a ridge with sensational colours. Getting there by car is not easy, the road is dirt and in very bad condition, we advise you to drive carefully but once you get down, the landscape is worth the effort. Balata dei Turchi is one of the most beautiful coasts in all of Europe.
