Best time to visit

The best times to visit this trail are May through October. A short but scenic excursion to the Island of Tavolara, known as the smallest kingdom in the world. 

Key cruising areas

Tavolara, particularly the southern area known as Teddja Liscia, and the nearby islets of Molara and Molarotto, which belong to the Tavolara Marine Protected Area - Punta Coda Cavallo, are a paradise for scuba divers: environments rich in biodiversity and populated by schools of trusting fish offer unforgettable sights.

Best beaches

Le Saline Beach

is the first beach you come across along the south coast and also the ideal destination for a last dip before coming back from holiday.

The beach, which is quite long, consists of reddish, coarse-grained sand and it's perfect for pleasant walks along the shore. Due to the strong undertow, the seabed quickly drops to 2 metres, which is the reason why the beach is very popular with surfers and sailing lovers.

Dottore beach

The Dottore beach is a small corner of paradise surrounded by vegetation and beautiful granite rocks.

The beach is characterised by very fine white sand alternated with small coloured pebbles and by a wonderful turquoise crystal sea, an ideal place for snorkelling and deep sea fishing lovers.

Spalmatore Beach on the Tavolara Island

 

The Island looks like a limestone and granite mountain more than 500 metres high above sea level, so it's accessible only to free-climbing enthusiasts. The only strip of low land is represented by the beach known as Spalmatore di Terra, where there is also a small harbour, some restaurants and a few houses.

Punta Molara Beach

 

From the beach, characterised by white sand alternated with cliff, you can enjoy the beautiful panorama with the island of Molara in the background. 

Moreover, for all nature lovers, the promontory of Punta Molara is also home to the Macchia Mediterranea Gardens, a 50-hectare didactic park with a large number of botanical species along evocative paths immersed in the colours and scents of the maquis.

Salina Bamba Beach (Punta Coda Cavallo)

 

Salina Bamba Beach is located between Cala Brandinchi and Baia Salinedda in Capo Coda Cavallo, within the municipality of San Teodoro.

Behind the beach, characterised by a shallow and sandy seabed, you can admire the salted water basin to which it owes its name. It is populated by numerous specimens of marine birds.

Lu Impostu Beach (San Teodoro)

 

Continuing toward south, before the promontory of Puntaldia, it is really worth visiting the wonderful beach of Lu Impostu. The name, meaning 'place of shipment', indicates that in the past the beach of Lu Impostu was probably used for trading and loading goods, while today it is a beautiful seaside resort, very popular with those looking for secluded beaches.

The vegetation is very rich: sea hollies, wild lilies and mimosas surround the entire beach, where you can also find many services for tourists.

La Cinta Beach (San Teodoro)

La Cinta is one of the most famous beaches in the whole of Sardinia and one of the most sought-after attractions in San Teodoro. Behind it, the San Teodoro pond is a very interesting destination for all nature lovers. In fact it is possible to see splendid specimens of pink flamingos but also coots, little terns, red herons and mallards living undisturbed in these waters.
