La Cinta, Beach in San Teodoro, Italy.
La Cinta is a beach on the northeast coast of Sardinia with fine white sand and shallow water surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation. The shoreline extends for several kilometers and separates the sea from the San Teodoro lagoon behind it.
The beach formed naturally as a sand barrier separating the sea from the lagoon, a landform that has persisted for centuries. This geological process created a unique ecosystem between two bodies of water.
The beach is deeply connected to local fishing traditions that have shaped the community for generations. Visitors can observe how this way of working influences the daily rhythm and food culture of the area.
The beach offers parking, equipment rentals, and refreshment stands for visitors, with a dedicated zone for kitesurfing. The shallow waters make it safe for beginners and families to swim and play in.
The lagoon behind the beach seasonally hosts pink flamingos, herons, and kingfishers that feed and nest there. This bird diversity makes the spot interesting for nature watchers, especially during warmer months.
