Hiking
This famous route takes you to one of the most enchanting coves in the Gulf of Orosei, characterized by a vast white sand beach and scenic coastal caves. The path is well traced and very popular, but we recommend wearing trekking shoes in any case.
From the car park above Cala Fuili, go down a staircase to the bed of the Codula Fuili canyon. Cross it and take the path that climbs up the opposite side following a series of hairpin bends. You soon reach a crossroads: ignore the deviation to the left that leads to the fossil branch of the Bue Marino caves and continue right, continuing the climb.
The path follows the ups and downs of the various secondary valleys, without major differences in height. Crossing the Mediterranean scrub, you will enjoy splendid views of the sea and the hinterland. Some rocky sections require caution; you soon arrive at the Oddoana cave and descend the valley of the same name.
The view of the beach will open up in front of you, with the path descending gently before becoming steeper towards Codula di Luna. Once you reach the sandy bed of the canyon, follow the path among the oleanders that takes you to the wonderful Cala Luna. For the return, you can follow the same path or, in summer, take a "dinghy-taxi", which you can book in advance at the port of Cala Gonone.

Oddoana Cave

The cave is not very large and the path to reach its entrance is a bit steep. Alternatively, you can take a small detour that goes around the cave.

Cala Luna
Highlight • Beach
The beauty of this bay is beyond compare. Here you can find shelter in the shade of one of the numerous caves or immerse yourself in the crystal clear waters, a true treasure of Sardinia. At the end of the bay, an oasis invites you to stop for a snack in the kiosk or for a picnic. Also watch out for bold goats grazing on the steep slopes!
If the walk back seems too challenging, you can always take a boat back to Cala Gonone or Cala Fuili.

And all back in the evening! 💪@Marina 🥵❤️
We only walked one way because a thunderstorm was approaching. We therefore made the return journey by boat, which costs 15 or 20 euros per person. The 20 euros includes the taxi to the car park (start of the hike). The tour was quite difficult in places, with climbing sections with and without aids. I don't want to walk this route when it's wet, which is why I decided to take the boat. The bay is very beautiful, but quite full even at the beginning of May. So not recommended in high season.
The hike was nice, although I would have liked more viewpoints🤷♀️😉 Not too strenuous, good hiking shoes and about 2 liters of water are recommended 😁 but we also met a man wearing sandals 🙈😅😅 The grotto on the way well😅 Down in Cala Luna everything is geared towards tourism, what a shame!!!!! When we arrived it was still going, then more and more boats came and carted the tourists!!!! At times we counted 50 boats and unfortunately we had to wait for our booked return transfer, which was at 3:30 p.m., otherwise we would have 100% left straight away. It was pure madness, for the END OF SEPTEMBER 🤷♀️🙈 For us, never again Cala Luna, unless in winter😅 Our highlight was the hike there 😉 LG Kathy (PS: at some point everyone wants to do this hike like we do)
A beautiful but challenging trip to a piece of paradise by the sea in Sardinia...'Cala Luna'
The path is very poorly maintained for long stretches: uneven stony ground.
...this time we actually went back to Cala Gonone by taxi boat🩵...Cala Luna is emptier though, when no boats can dock due to high waves, then the only thing you can do is 'hike..hike'🥾😆
...you shouldn't rely on the boat taxi from CalaLuna to CalaFuili or Cala Golone...it doesn't run when there are waves🫣...my husband didn't think it was funny at all ;)...but after an afternoon nap in the grottos , espresso and Ichnusa the way back was ok after all 🙃
Very pleasant route for a walk, some shade, some sun😀. Return from the beach by large boat (price includes transport by bus to the starting point). On one section the GPS signal went crazy 🤔 there were patterns 😉.

From the car park above Cala Fuili, go down a staircase

One of the most beautiful hikes I have ever done! The first time because we couldn't get picked up by the boats, then twice more voluntarily! Surefootedness and suitable footwear are required and the route seems much longer than 5.3 km😁
