Cala Fico

Cala Fico, San Pietro Island, Sardinia, Italy.

On the island's northwest coast, the rocky inlet of Cala Fico is one of the island's hidden beauty spots and, along with Isola del Corno, home to a nesting colony of Eleonora's falcons. The bay, resembling a tiny fjord, is flanked by a wall of chipped and cracked white-grey rock that catches the late afternoon sun and reflects the light onto the seawater, lending it a lovely turquoise colour.
