ORISTANO AREA - Is Arutas
Coordinates: 39°57'5.62"N 08°24'5.82"E
Is Arutas beach stretches for several kilometers, it has a clear sea which colors are between green and blue. It is known as the beach of the grains of rice, being composed of small grains of quartz, which shades range from pink, to green, to pure white. Is Arutas, as well as the nearby beaches of Mari Ermì and Maimoni, differ from the other coasts of Sardinia, because composed of porphyritic granite instead of the common calcareous rock. The seabed consists of colourful quartz grains which are the result of a long chemical evolution and atmospheric processing. This corner of Sardinia is unique and wild. It provides the basic services, but it is a destination far from the mass tourism. All these aspects make the beach of Is Arutas even more fascinating. It is also considered a perfect spot for surfers also in the winter months because of the deep shore seabed.

ORISTANO AREA - Torre dei Corsari
Coordinates: 39°40'41"N 8°26'48"E
The beach, along the magnificent Costa Verde, is made up of ochre-coloured sand, hemmed by tall dunes, lapped by a turquoise-green sea. The beach stretches for around 1.5 kilometres up to the locality of Pistis. The bright golden colour of the sand strongly contrasts with the surrounding landscape, with sprays of green from the thick Mediterranean brush that covers the hills on the three sides of the hinterland (north, east and south). Its waters are of a changing blue due to the plays of light created by the sun reflected on the seabed. An evocative chromatic display is offered by the mixture of the golden sand, the colour of the rocks, the deep blue of the sea and the carpet of typical vegetation of the Mediterranean brush that covers the hills to its rear. -

ORISTANO AREA - Piscinas
Coordinates: 39°32'31.42"N 08°26'56"E
Located in an unspoilt area of great naturalistic beauty, the beach of Piscinas, along the seashore of the Costa Verde, is surrounded for some kilometres by tall dunes (among the tallest in Europe), still alive and modelled by the mistral wind, its yellow ochre colour occasionally interrupted by bushes of prickly esparto, thorny carrot, sea lily and, more inland, junipers and old olives that form small groves. A flora-fauna territory of great interest, the ideal environment for long walks on the sand, especially in the early hours of the morning, when it is even possible to glimpse the deer that actually go down to the sea and, in the month of June, the sea turtles that lay their eggs. Not far away, in Marina of Arbus, we find the stretch of beach of Funtanazza, of intense green waters and dark grey sand, and the beaches of Pistis and Torre dei Corsari, characterised by a long, wide beach surrounded by golden dunes. A swim offshore, at just 200 metres from the beach, allows the swimmer to observe a rare, evocative sea landscape, also noticing traces of a wrecked English ship that, loaded with lead and armed with a gun, has rested among the sand for some hundred years. -

BUGGERRU - Cala Domestica
Coordinates: 39°22'25.2"N 8°22'48.9"E
Set in a wild corner of the SW coast, among white calcareous cliffs, the inlet of Cala Domestica delights the eyes of the spectator with a beach covered in fine sand mixed with gravel, with rocks dotted all around, as well as being hemmed in by dunes punctuated by rich scented vegetation in stark chromatic contrast with the unbelievable blue of the sea. The beach is found in a mining zone, and therefore on view, are the ruins of the buildings associated with the nearby mines; the stores or the depositories of the minerals to be embarked, but also tunnels that lead to the so-called Caletta, a reserved and very intimate beach, in which the mouth of a stream is found. In front, on the calcareous peninsula that looks to the S, the view is dominated by a solitary Spanish tower. The area is particularly loved by scuba fishing enthusiasts or simply by those wishing to take a dip in its uncontaminated waters, perhaps with a mask and flippers to discover the treasures that are hidden below the waterline. -
