A granite cottage for a slow week
Quiet houses tucked into the granite, a short walk from the water — the island at its most unhurried.
Cala Coticcio — “Tahiti” on foot
A turquoise cove reached by trail. Access is regulated to protect it — go with an authorised guide.
Giugno Slow & the makers
A Slow Food spring of growers, tastings and workshops — the season the island opens its larder.
Kayak between the islands
Paddle the channels to Spargi and Santa Maria — SUP, sail and swim stops where the water turns clear.
Sunset aperitivo on the granite
The island’s western tip — bring a bottle and watch the sun drop behind the archipelago.
The fish of the day, in the caruggi
Where the boats land and the kitchens follow the catch — then Vermentino in the narrow lanes after dark.
