The entire archipelago is part of the “La Maddalena National Park”. It is a tourist area with many beautiful beaches, the most famous “Spiaggia Rosa” (or Rose Beach) on the island of Budelli, which is rosy due to the appearance of red coral, but unfortunately, it can be admired only from distance due to its preservation closure.
