    Amazing beach with clear water
    I like the more rocky beaches because I don't like to be many people and this beach was perfect
    I didn't book a ticket in the beach with sand, firstly I didn't know that you need to book it, but the second I like it more wild nature.
    But if you are coming without a reservation on a rocky beach bring something you sit on, because although a towel might be OK its not very comfortable

    That beach (also the rest of orosei) is a reason to visit Sardinia. Turquoise waters, spectacular scenery. Accessible only by boat.

    Very friendly, knowledgeable and kind staff: we had an unforgettable tour in English by Andrea Lintas, very erudite, local guide - strongly recommended to truly understand the sight (even if you have read before).

    If you have a chance, once you do the physical walk of the sight, also do thereafter the ‘virtual tour’ with the help of a VR headset. This is a three-dimensional reconstruction of how the town looked in the Phoenician, Roman (and current-areal photography) times based on the extensive reconstruction done by 4 Italian universities working on the sight (including recent discoveries of the plaster wall and ceiling decorations). It is the best ever use of modern technology we have seen by any archaeological site or museum. It was educational, visually impressive and, very importantly - working with no glitches. We were truly impressed and absolutely recommend it as a compliment to the physical walk - totally worth the money. Bravo to the Nora staff!

    Decided to stay in Maddalena for 3 nights, on our way to Costa Smeralda. Great decision. Much better destination than the coast. Plus if you love visiting, cycling, hiking, secluded beaches, everything is there. I would recommend to not make the mistake of only visiting for the day. The village has a lot to offer, plenty of great places to just sit have a coffee, great restaurants. Plus staying ion Maddalena, gives you the chance to visit the city, the island, get on Caprera for hiking from fabulous coves to coves. We did not do the boat day tours, though no time. Maddalena was a highlight of our trip

    We happened to find this beach by coincidence and were blown away.

    It was tucked away, locals welcomed the tourists and the beach was held very clean.

    You were offered cold fruit for way too much money, but it was so worth it.

    Very nice, clean and well kept coastal area. White sand and clear sea which stretches for miles. Also a very good (and flat) jogging and cycling route if you enjoy that. Not that many restaurants for such a large area and the ones I went in struggled with English...but nothing Google Translate couldn't fix.

    Parked 1km from the end in an EasyPark bay. Walked the last stretch into capo testa. Used AllTrails for an overview of all the trails around the park.
    From the entrance by the cafe, went right and along the coastland path. Went to the far north area to the climb up to the rock.
    Nice, though in sept was still v hot so plenty of water required.

    We booked our access to this beach 48 hours before (on Heart of Sardinia app) as there is a limit to the number of people allowed on the beach. There were, however, tickets available on the morning when we turned up at 8am.
    We stayed in a really cute B&B in Baunei so got to the entrance when it opened. Parking is at Su Porteddu bar. At the entrance there was someone there checking shoes to make sure we had the right footwear. It was quite a rugged hike and I felt more “moderate” than “easy”! It took us 1.5 hours to get there. Was definitely worth the effort with the view you got at the end! Take lots of water and food as there are no facilities on the beach itself. It is very stoney so we were glad we had brought our wet shoes with us. It took us the same amount of time to get back and we felt a little easier as was ascending rather than descending. We took a boat trip the following day around the Baunei coast and viewed the beach from there as the boats are not allowed to pull up in the beach. It honestly felt like a different beach viewing it from the outside! So glad we did the hike because it was a much better experience than just viewing it from the water. A really lovely day.

    Idyllic beach with easy access and parking at 10 eur charge / day. Turquoise crystal clear water Perfect for swimming. Sand is comfortable and not sticky. Clean and green surroundings. There are also 2 beach bar/restaurants with restroom.
    Make sure to arrive there before 9 am as there is only a limited capacity and it can get full quickly after 9. I saw few other similar ones within 10-15 minute drive nearby.
    We returned twice during our holidays in Sardegna as it was one of the most outstanding beaches during our trip.
    Make sure to try the brioche and espresso in the near by, bar at just 8 minutes drive from this beach, in the town of domus maria.

    nice beach, but I don't recommend it for beginner cyclists, the elevation difference is too big, every beach has as much as this one in Sardegna
