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

Small cove
Surface Area: 480 sqm
orientation south-west
cat Geniò Cove

The formation of the Geniò Cove is characterized by the dense vegetation behind it, located in a relatively inaccessible area, it reminds us of an unspoiled small cove, the proximity to parking lots, services, and its size make it suitable for those who prefer comfort over adventure.

With a length of 60 meters and an average width of approximately 8 meters, it has a surface area of 480 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 60 people comfortably.

The Sand

Yellow sand
Fine sand

The Beach is composed of Fine sand sand of Yellow sand color, with vegetation behind it, mainly characterized by Mediterranean scrub.

The Sea

Water Emerald
Water Shallow
Seabed Sand and rocks

The sea has a Emerald 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 Geniò Cove is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 60 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 Splendida caletta! Molto riservata, c'è posto al massimo per 4 ombrelloni. In compenso poco prima c'è una piana di roccie/scogli dove poter prendere il sole.

it Uno dei gioielli più caratteristici di San Pietro. Raggiungibile in macchina attraverso un sentiero asfaltato, potete lasciare la vostra auto in un'area sterrata,da lì ci sono da fare un paio di metri a piedi. La spiaggia è accessibile attraverso degli scalini e per chi avesse carrozzine o simili può usufruire di una rampa posta lì affianco. Una delle particolarità è sicuramente la presenza di diversi tipi di argilla con cui fare dei fanghi. La limpidezza dell'acqua è un invito a fare una bella nuotata. Dalla spiaggia di Geniò potete raggiungere in poco tempo la spiaggia del Lucchese, non da ultimo, potete vedere a perdita d'occhio le famose Colonne. Tappa sicuramente meritevole di visita.
