Located in the southern part of idyllic Costa Rei, the elongated sandy beach of Sant Elmo is replete with picturesque rocky and sandy bays where surrealistically sculptural rock formations make for fanciful musings. Some of these sea-polished stones resemble whales while others bring to mind bears or cormorants. Everywhere you look is glistening aquamarine water so clear that you can see right to the bottom.

Lovely paths wind along the coast through the aromatic maquis to various coves. Inland from Sant'Elmo is hilly terrain and lush green vegetation.

Also worth a visit is Cala Sinzias bay in the south, where superbly swimmable water and the finest of white sandy beaches await you.
