If you’re dreaming of white sand and turquoise waters, know that booking your summer stay at Cala Violina is the first step toward making that dream a reality. Starting June 1, access to this gem of the Gulf of Follonica will be limited to protect the wild beauty of the Mediterranean scrub. Here at Borgo Etrusco, located just 10 minutes from the trail, we’ve put together a simple guide for you so you won’t be caught off guard.
Why is it necessary to make a summer reservation for Cala Violina?
The Cala Violina summer reservation system was created to ensure a peaceful and relaxing experience for everyone, while preventing overcrowding. By booking your spot online on the official website (available starting in late May), you can secure access to the beach and parking. It’s the perfect solution for those seeking the sound of “violins” underfoot—that unique rustling sound the sand makes when walked on in silence.
Practical tips for booking your summer stay at Cala Violina
Booking a summer stay at Cala Violina also means getting ready for a hike through the woods. The trail that starts at Puntone di Scarlino offers a refreshing walk amid the scents of rockrose and rosemary. Be sure to bring water and comfortable shoes: the reward that awaits you once you reach your destination will make every step taken under the Tuscan sun worthwhile.
📸 Editor's Pick: The Perfect Light on the Beach
Many people arrive at Cala Violina around noon, but that’s actually the worst time to take the perfect photo: the light is too harsh.
My secret: If you’ve made your summer reservation at Cala Violina, try to stay until late afternoon. Around 5:30 p.m., the sun begins to set and the quartz sand takes on an almost magical golden glow.
The technical tip: Frame the beach from north to south, keeping the sea on your left. The curve of the cove will create a natural line that draws the viewer’s eye straight toward Elba Island on the horizon. It’s the shot that will make all your friends jealous!
