La Pelosa
Stintino
La Pelosa, in Stintino, is renowned for its Caribbean-like waters and fine, white sand. A true paradise in northern Sardinia.
Location
La Pelosa beach is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Sardinia and the Mediterranean. Its hallmark is the shallow, crystal-clear turquoise waters and the incredibly fine, white sand, which resembles powder. The bay is overlooked by an ancient 16th-century watchtower, the Torre della Pelosa, and the nearby island of Piana with another tower, providing a picturesque backdrop.
The shallow water extends far into the sea, making La Pelosa an ideal spot for families with young children. The natural beauty and calm atmosphere make the beach a coveted destination. To ensure the preservation of this natural jewel, access is regulated during peak season.
