Spiaggia le Saline
Calasetta
Beach north of Stintino with white pebbles and clear waters, ideal for water sports enthusiasts and nature lovers.
Location
Spiaggia Le Saline, located near Stintino, is renowned for its unique beach, which consists not of sand but of small, white, and smoothly polished pebbles. These give the shoreline a shimmering appearance and create a fascinating contrast with the intense turquoise blue of the sea.
This expansive beach is particularly popular with windsurfers and kitesurfers, as ideal wind conditions and waves often prevail here, especially during the Mistral. Nevertheless, quieter sections can also be found for relaxation.
In addition to bathing pleasure, Spiaggia Le Saline is also a place of ecological importance. It is one of the most significant natural areas in the Mediterranean and serves, among other things, as a nesting site for the common tern. A visit here combines natural beauty with a touch of wildness, making it an unforgettable experience.
Highlights
- Remarkable white pebbles instead of sand
- Excellent conditions for windsurfing and kitesurfing
- Intensely turquoise sea waters
- Important natural area and bird sanctuary
Tips
- During windy conditions, water shoes might be more comfortable due to the pebbles.
- Pay attention to the Mistral; it brings waves but also stronger winds.
- Visit the beach in the morning for quieter hours.
- Inquire about bird nesting seasons to avoid disturbance.
