Photography in La Maddalena: The 4 Most Instagrammable Spots

Capturing the Light of Sardinia: A Challenge for Every Photographer

The island of La Maddalena is an open-air film set, where light bounces off pink granite and reflects in a sea of impossible hues. For those who love photography or simply want to update their social feed with breathtaking shots, May and June offer unparalleled air clarity. Staying at Il Maestrale means having the perfect "operational base": the house's location allows you to reach the most beautiful panoramic spots precisely during the golden hour.

Punta Tegge and the Lunar Cliff: Signature Sunset Shots

If there's one place every guest of Il Maestrale should capture, it's the cliff at Punta Tegge. Here, the contrast between the flat, whitish rocks and the intense blue of the sea creates an almost lunar atmosphere. As the sun sets, the sky is painted with colours ranging from purple to fiery orange, offering perfect light conditions for long exposure techniques. Bringing a tripod is a must, as is taking a moment for contemplation before clicking the shutter on one of Sardinia's most famous sunsets.

The sunset at Punta Tegge is one of the places to admire a thrilling sunset.

To experience a fabulous sunset and enjoy an excellent cocktail, we recommend heading to the rocks of Zi Antò

Caprera Island: Amidst Abandoned Wrecks and Solitary Lighthouses

Moving towards Caprera, the landscape changes drastically, offering wilder and more melancholic photographic subjects. Spiaggia del Relitto (Shipwreck Beach), with the remains of an ancient vessel emerging from the shore, is an iconic subject that tells stories of the sea and time. For those who prefer nature photography, the wind-sculpted maritime pines and the wild goats that give the island its name offer continuous inspiration.
