About the beach
Cala Granara, within La Maddalena (the province of Gallura Nord-Est Sardegna, Sardinia), is a sandy beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The beach faces southeast (129°). It is most sheltered when the Mistral (NW) or Ponente (W) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Sirocco (SE) or Levante (E) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
