Arco di S'Archittu
The Arco di S'Archittu is an impressive natural rock arch on Sardinia's west coast, shaped by wind and sea, a landmark of the region.
Location
The Arco di S'Archittu, situated near the village of the same name on the Sinis coast, is one of Sardinia's most fascinating natural formations. This majestic limestone arch rises elegantly from the sea, having been shaped over millennia by the relentless power of wind and waves.
