cat La Galatea Beach

The formation of the La Galatea Beach 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 15 meters and an average width of approximately 6 meters, it has a surface area of 90 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 11 people comfortably.

The Sand

Yellow sand
Coarse sand

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

The Sea

Water Turquoise
Water Shallow
Seabed Sand and rocks

The sea has a Turquoise 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 La Galatea Beach is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 11 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 Discreta spiaggia. Pro: facilmente accessibile con parcheggi gratuiti e presenza di chiosco. Contro: molto frequentata per gli stessi motivi. La spiaggia presenta sabbia non fine ma comunque gradevole e non ci sono pietre in acqua tranne che ovviamente ai due lati. La spiaggia si estende per quasi un chilometro. Sono presenti dei servizi per il surf.
