PISCINAS ET LA COSTA VERDE
The Costa Verde is a coastline characterized by splendid, long, sandy and somewhat wild beaches, spectacular cliffs and dunes overlooking the emerald sea and dying inland. The golden colors of the sand blend with the lush green of the typical Mediterranean scrubland.
In spring, the Costa Verde also becomes a paradise for surfers, who find the best waves to ride. In summer, the summer calm offers an unrivalled atmosphere, long days on the beach and picture-postcard sunsets that are among the most beautiful in the Mediterranean. The coast is so pure and isolated that even the loggerhead sea turtle lays its eggs along the beaches of Piscinas and Scivu.
Piscinas. One of Sardinia's wildest beaches. 3 km of golden sand bordered by dunes up to 100 m high. They are among the highest living dunes in Europe and constitute a unique natural environment. Due to the strong currents and the immediate depth of the water, the beach is not really suitable for children. As the site is accessible via a track and there are no villages in the immediate vicinity, Piscinas is never really crowded. This makes it a perfect place to spend a day if you're looking for a quiet spot. Visits to Piscinas, the abandoned mining village of Ingurtosu and the Laveria Brassey mine can be combined in the same day.
