Spiaggia di Foddini I
Cardedu
Spiaggia di Foddini I in Cardedu, on Sardinia's east coast, is an expansive beach with golden sand and crystal-clear waters, surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation.
Location
Spiaggia di Foddini I is located in the Ogliastra region near Cardedu and is one of the most beautiful beaches on Sardinia's east coast. This long stretch of coastline is characterized by medium-grained, golden sand that gently slopes into the sea. The water shimmers in intense azure and turquoise hues, inviting visitors to swim and snorkel.
Behind the beach, there is an untouched dune landscape with Mediterranean vegetation, including a pine forest that provides natural shade. Although the beach is very wide, it can be well-visited during the summer months. Spiaggia di Foddini I is often windier, which attracts surfers, but this factor might be worth noting for families with small children, as the water quickly gets deeper.
The beach is an ideal place to enjoy nature, the sun, and the clear Mediterranean Sea. Visitors are asked to respect the environment and keep the beach clean. Taking sand, stones, or shells is prohibited to protect the ecosystem.
