Abbatoggia is one of two granite extremities on the north of La Maddalena island. It runs along a peninsula which houses a camping as well as many beaches: among these, the first is called il Morto (the Dead), due to a rough grave of a soldier still clearly visible and located on the eastern side of the shore. The second, lo Strangolato (the Strangled) is so called for the narrow strip of land; finally, at the end of Abbatoggia, we can find Punta Cannone beach, with its cream-colored, coarse sand and emerald sea water that becomes immediately deep.
