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

Surface Area: 360 sqm
orientation north-east
cat Roman Columns Beach

The formation of the Roman Columns 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 45 meters and an average width of approximately 8 meters, it has a surface area of 360 square meters and can accommodate a maximum of 45 people comfortably.

The Sand

Yellow sand
Very fine sand

The Beach is composed of Very fine 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 Roman Columns Beach is open access, without a specific limit defined by law. The maximum capacity of 45 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 La Spiaggia delle colonne romane è un prolungamento della spiaggia Rena di Levante o Zia Colomba, situata a Santa Teresa di Gallura nella località di Capo Testa. In questo lembo di spiaggia sono ancora ben visibili i resti delle cave di granito romane, infatti tutto il promontorio  fu anticamente utilizzato dai Romani come cava di granito per la realizzazione delle opere dell’impero. Si dice che il Pantheon di Roma sia stato realizzato in parte con il materiale proveniente da Capo Testa. Ancora oggi sulla spiaggia e nei fondali circostanti è possibile trovare numerose colonne e pareti granitiche lavorate dall’uomo e dall’azione del mare. Il panorama risulta essere affascinante se ci spostiamo verso destra troviamo l’ampio arenile di Zia Colomba molto apprezzata dai bagnanti nel periodo estivo, e per questo abbastanza affollata, ricca di servizi in spiaggia. Se ci muoviamo verso sinistra troviamo un susseguirsi di cale e insenature tra sabbia bianca e mari azzurro turchese con numerose rocce bianche dalle sembianze umane.

it Suggestivo. Da spiaggia Zia Culumba con una breve passeggiata si arriva in questo sito molto particolare. Mare cristallino bei fondali e rocce particolarissime tra cui si ammirano ancora ben visibili le colonne.
