Stintino and surroundings - 10 November 2025

There are places in Sardinia that capture the heart through their simplicity.

La Pelosetta Beach is one of them: a corner of paradise beside the famous La Pelosa, yet with a quieter, more intimate, and authentic soul.

Its turquoise waters, pale sand, and views of Isola Piana and the Torre della Pelosa make it unmissable for anyone seeking beauty and silence.
