Cala di Forno, Sandy beach in Magliano in Toscana, Italy.
Cala di Forno is a sandy beach set within a protected cove of the Maremma Natural Park, featuring golden sand and clear waters. The shoreline is bordered by Mediterranean vegetation and remains untouched by modern development.
The coastal area was incorporated into the Maremma Natural Park in 1975 and has remained protected from modern development since then. This conservation measure has preserved the natural state of the cove for decades.
The beach gained recognition through its appearance in the 1984 Italian film 'Non ci resta che piangere'. This cinematic connection has anchored the location in the cultural memory of many Italians.
Reaching the cove requires an 8-kilometer hike from Località Pinottolaio, as vehicle access is restricted for conservation purposes. Plan adequate time for the walk and bring appropriate footwear and water for the journey.
The area is home to diverse wildlife including foxes, deer, and peregrine falcons that can be observed in their natural habitat. This biodiversity makes the remote cove attractive to nature watchers and photographers.
