Laghetto delle Ondine
A natural seawater pool among the lava reefs on the north coast, filled by waves washing over the rocks. The water is clear and calm, ideal for swimming.
Laghetto delle Ondine is a natural seawater pool formed among the lava reefs near Punta Spadillo on the north coast. Waves from the open sea wash over the rocks and into the pool, whose water is clear and relatively calm, making it ideal for swimming and photography. From the car park at the Spadillo lighthouse, a 15-minute walk along the path passes the lava coast of Cala Cinque Denti. The rocks are sharp, so wear non-slip shoes. In strong winds or high waves, stay away from the outer reefs.
