The Sea

Water Blue
Water Shallow
Seabed Sand and rocks

The sea has a Blue 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.

The Giglio Beach is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 65 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 Spiaggetta molto molto carina e tranquilla. Piccola, di sabbia, bel fondale, splendido mare. Incastonata tra ville a scomparsa, molte della quali hanno discesa privata a mare. Vista su porto Cervo.
