With a length of 500 meters and an average width of approximately 20 meters, it has a surface area of 10000 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 1250 people comfortably.

The Sand

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 Petra Ruja Cove is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 1250 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.
