Posada Beach

Posada Beach is a flat sandy cove along the Sardinian coast with fine pale sand and shallow clear water suitable for swimming. Wooden boardwalks cross a protective dune separating the shore from the village, with natural plants growing throughout the sandy area.

The area holds evidence of ancient Etruscan settlements and Phoenician activity, pointing to human presence here for thousands of years. A medieval fortress was later built on the cliff above the beach to defend against pirates during the Middle Ages.

The small village of Posada embodies traditional Sardinian ways of life that remain visible in how locals move through their days. The connection between the settlement and the sea has defined the community for generations.

The beach is safest and most comfortable to visit from May through September when lifeguards and basic facilities operate on-site. Multiple parking areas at the village edge provide access, and reaching the shore requires only a short walk across the wooden path.

The ruins of an ancient Roman villa lie partially buried under sand at the western edge of the beach, occasionally showing their walls after storms. These remains offer a rare glimpse into Roman-era occupation after the Etruscan period.
