Budelli's Pink Beach: what to know before going
Published on September 27, 2026

On the island of Budelli, in the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park, lies the famous Pink Beach. Its colour comes from the sediments of microscopic organisms mixed with the sand.
Precisely because it is so fragile, the beach is protected: landing is forbidden. The rules for approaching from the sea are set by the park authority and have changed over time, with authorisation and booking systems. For this reason, before planning your day, it is essential to check the up-to-date official guidance from the park.
The ban takes nothing away from the charm of the area: the archipelago offers dozens of other coves and islands to discover. Respecting the rules is the best way to preserve these places for those who come after us.
