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

Cove
Surface Area: 222 sqm
orientation north-east
cat Portese Cove

The formation of the Portese Cove, it reminds us of a relatively large cove, the proximity to parking lots, services, and its size make it suitable for those who prefer comfort over adventure.

With a length of 74 meters and an average width of approximately 3 meters, it has a surface area of 222 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 28 people comfortably.

The Sand

Orange sand
Very fine sand

The Beach is composed of Very fine sand sand of Orange sand color, with vegetation behind it, mainly characterized by Mediterranean scrub.

The Sea

Water Turquoise
Water Shallow
Seabed Sandy bottom

The sea has a Turquoise color, with a predominantly sandy seabed.

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 Portese Cove is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 28 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.

Private Vehicles

You can reach the beach by private vehicle, using the road that leads to the parking area near the beach.

By Sea

You can also reach the beach by sea using small boats, either private or rented, utilizing the dedicated launching corridor on the beach. Furthermore, it should be noted that the launching corridor is generally intended for transit purposes for unloading/loading. The boat should be anchored according to the instructions of the beach staff. In the absence of a launching corridor, the boat should be moored at a certain distance from the coast.

it Spiaggia sottovalutata, ma tanto bella. Piccola, acqua smeraldina e fondale bellissimo ! Generalmente il mare è meno mosso rispetto a quello della spiaggia dei Due Mari (alle sue spalle). Parcheggio a 100m. Unico neo: strada a ridosso.

it Spiaggia dell'isola di Caprera che si può trovare anche con indicazione "i due mari". Acqua limpidane cristallina, sabbia fine, presenza di alghe sulla spiaggia. Un po' problematico il parcheggio, che va inventato lungo la strada. Consigliata

it È una bellissima spiaggia di sabbia bianca, acqua cristallina, immersa nella macchia mediterranea. É adatta ai bambini. Sulla spiaggia è presente uno stabilimento balneare. Si trova nell' isola di Caprera, raggiungibile in auto o in bus.

it la strada da percorrere in auto non è delle migliori, ma il primo scorcio della spiaggia che si vede tra gli alberi è da togliere il fiato. La spiaggia è piccola ma non troppo frequentata, almeno nella prima settimana di luglio. Lo consiglio anche con bimbi al seguito.
