chi sono

Hello, I'm Fabrizio, I've been living in Sardinia for over 34 years and I wanted to share my experience of Sardinian beaches with you!

I will guide you in discovering your perfect beach!

Characteristics and Type of Beach

Equipped beach
Surface Area: 2200 sqm
orientation north-east
cat Cala del Faro Beach

The formation of the Cala del Faro Beach combined with the large number of beach resorts, it reminds us of an equipped beach, the proximity to parking lots, services, and its size make it suitable for those who prefer comfort over adventure.

With a length of 110 meters and an average width of approximately 20 meters, it has a surface area of 2200 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 275 people comfortably.

The Sand

Yellow sand
Pebbles

The Beach is composed of Pebbles sand of Yellow sand color, however, due to its morphology, there is no indigenous vegetation behind it.

The Sea

Water Green
Water Shallow
Seabed Sand and rocks

The sea has a Green color, with a mixed seabed of sand and rocks.

The bathymetric lines are far apart, so the depth gradually decreases, classifying it as a beach with shallow water.

Restrictions and Protection

No Sand Collection
No Shell Collection

The Cala del Faro Beach is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 275 people is purely indicative and is determined using the guidelines of beach resorts, assuming approximately 8 square meters per person, taking into account beach chairs or towels, umbrellas, and a perimeter passage area.

It should also be noted that on all Sardinian coasts, Article 40 of Regional Law No. 16 of July 28, 2017, paragraph 2, states: Except where the act constitutes a more serious offense, anyone who removes, possesses, sells even small quantities of sand, pebbles, stones, or shells from the coast or the sea without proper authorization or concession issued by the competent authorities is subject to an administrative fine of 500 to 3,000 euros.

it La particolarità di questo posto è il manto erboso molto curato che finisce dove inizia la spiaggia di sassolini color roccia marrone per cui pur essendo l'acqua cristallina , la trasparenza è diversa da quella di altre spiagge della zona.Ben attrezzato lo stabilimento del resort con spazio per bambini e ragazzi ...in mare una pedana per i tuffi.Organizzato molto bene uno spazio per disabili in carrozzina che consente di fare il bagno senza problemi.Il tramonto .....mozzafiato!
