Capriccioli, Mediterranean beach in Arzachena, Italy.

Capriccioli is a seaside resort and beach on the Costa Smeralda in the municipality of Arzachena, facing the island of Mortorio. Its two beaches of fine white sand are separated by a passage of granite rocks. Behind them grows Sardinian scrub of junipers, cistus and wild olives.

Capriccioli takes its name from the Gallurese word capricciòli, meaning "little goats", a reminder of the pastoral use of this stretch of Arzachena's coast before it became a bathing resort. The two beaches, split by a granite outcrop, face the island of Mortorio and lie within sight of the islands of Soffi and delle Camere, part of the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park.
