Rada Cecca di Morto

Dead Man’s Cecca

Anchorages Cecca di Morto is an incredible stretch of sea located between the islands of Budelli, Razzoli and Santa Maria Isola. A spot on Sardinia very famous for the presence of paradisiacal coves and beaches characterized by crystal clear seas. Cecca di Morto is true to the fame that precedes it, with a clear sea and a seabed so distinctive that it has even been the source of a sad setback.

In fact, the sandy bottom has always had great appeal because of its pink color. So much so that it enticed the many tourists to often take a portion of it away as a souvenir. This has led, over the years, to a fading of the intensity of color on the bottom and the play of light it generated with the turquoise surface of the water. The beauty and charm of the place has certainly not deteriorated, but it has certainly lost that distinctive profile over the years.

Of course, to protect the site, access to the beach is not possible today. In fact, ‘ anchoring is allowed only east of the island of Budelli. Boats that decide to anchor in this wonderful inlet, must be careful of the particularly shallow sandy seabed. Paying attention, above all, to the shoal located in the center of the anchorage.
