The place is characterized for a wide variety of landscapes; from the spaced beaches out to the reefs of granite to peak on the sea with many more varied colours, that contrast with the typical colours of the Mediterranean spot. |
To this purpose we cite the famous beached creek of Cala Spinosa, maybe the most representative of the entire island (Do you think we are presumptuous? Try to take a look!). |

Santa Reparata's bay, not only characteristic for its beauty and position (the name says all: the fishermen of the zone moor their boats just here) it has also an historical interest. In this zone we can find the rests of the quarries opened from the ancient roman, for the extraction of the granite used for the construction of the Pantheon's external columns. |
The isthmus and its two beaches, the rena di ponente and the rena di levante. For their strategic position they allow to enjoy calm sea with all wind conditions. |

The charming Valle della Luna, is an obliged stage for who reaches Capo Testa. It could be reached on foot, through a path, a little bit difficult to find, and is extremely interesting to visit it. The zone is dominated by the highest massive of granite of the small peninsula and it naturally flows into the sea in a calm and wonderful little beach, similar to a valley. |
The landscape is various and it's possible to find charming reefs, natural coves and a sweet water source that gushes out from a crack in the rock (to said of some geologists it could comes from
the mountains of the Corsica, crossing all the mouths of Bonifacio, based on the theory of communicating pots). |
