Sea, Food & Experiences

The southwestern coast of Sardinia, around Buggerru, is a succession of breathtaking landscapes where nature is still the main character. Here, the sea sculpts the rocks and the wind caresses the dunes, creating a perfect balance between strength and silence. From the spectacular bay of Cala Domestica, nestled between cliffs, to the long golden stretches of Scivu, each beach offers a different emotion. Perfect for those who love swimming in clear waters, sunbathing on fine sands, or simply walking in silence along the shore, lulled by the sound of the waves.

• Portixeddu – A wide, unspoiled beach surrounded by Mediterranean scrub. The wind makes it ideal for surfing, but it remains peaceful and wild even during the high season.
• Capo Pecora – Known as the Dinosaur Eggs Beach. Just a few kilometers away, a panoramic road overlooking the entire San Nicolò coast leads to a beach from another era; small coves alternate among rounded rocks and boulders.
• Cala Domestica – A uniquely charming cove where nature and mining history meet. Ideal for snorkeling, with a small tunnel carved into the rock that leads to an even more secluded spot.
• Scivu – A beach over 3 km long, famous for its “singing sands” that squeak underfoot. Perfect for those seeking space, silence, and endless horizons.
• Piscinas – A paradise where the waves meet the golden desert sands with the highest dunes in Europe, a UNESCO heritage site.
• Pan di Zucchero – The natural monument of the mining coast that resembles its Brazilian “Pan de Azúcar” twin. At 133 meters, it is the tallest sea stack in the Mediterranean, rising just offshore from Masua beach, opposite the sea entrance of Porto Flavia, the old mining harbor. You can admire it from the coast or up close by circumnavigating it. Magnificent in the blue sea, magical at sunset. Climbing enthusiasts can scale it, following some of the miners’ original routes.
• Boat excursions – Explore hidden coves, majestic cliffs, and sea caves accessible only by boat. An evocative experience that reveals the most secret side of the coastline.
