Spiaggia della Marina di Arbus, Mediterranean beach in Marina di Gutturu Flumini, Sardinia
Description
Spiaggia della Marina di Arbus is a roughly 2-kilometer stretch of golden sand that curves along Sardinia's southwestern coast. Clear shallow waters meet red rock cliffs, while Mediterranean plants grow along the shoreline.
History
The area sits near former mining operations that shaped Sardinia's economy from the 1800s through the mid-1900s. The closure of these mines marked a major shift in how the region developed and how people made their living.
Culture
Local fishermen work these waters using methods passed down through generations, shaping the rhythm of daily life along the coast. You can watch their boats and nets from the beach, connecting modern visitors to the area's seafaring traditions.
Practical
The beach has limited facilities on site, so bring your own water and supplies for the day. The nearest shops and restaurants are about 25 kilometers away in the town of Arbus.
Did you know?
The sand produces distinctive sounds when you walk on it, created by its mineral composition. Beneath the surface, natural underwater formations offer an unexpected world for snorkeling and observing sea life.
