Cala Coticcio, Beach in La Maddalena Archipelago, Italy
The beach stretches along a small cove with fine white sand, surrounded by pink granite rocks and crystal-clear turquoise waters at coordinates 41.2180532, 9.485806.
The beach lies on the island of Caprera, which gained historical significance as the residence of Giuseppe Garibaldi during the Italian unification period.
Local residents named this beach Tahiti due to its resemblance to South Pacific waters, reflecting the regional appreciation for natural Mediterranean beauty.
