Spiaggia di Feraxi, Sand beach in eastern Sardinia, Italy
Spiaggia di Feraxi is a sand beach on eastern Sardinia that stretches for several kilometers between a natural lagoon and the sea, displaying light-colored sand and transparent water. The shore is bordered by a pine forest that provides shade and frames the coastal landscape.
The coastal area was inhabited during the Nuragic period, more than 3000 years ago, as evidenced by archaeological findings scattered across the region. This long settlement history shows how important the shoreline has been to people living in Sardinia.
The lagoon linked to this beach remains central to local fishing traditions, where families continue using methods refined over many generations. The relationship between water and livelihood shapes how people in the area live and work.
The beach is easy to reach with parking available in the nearby pine forest area and basic services like a beach bar and umbrella rentals on-site. Visiting early in the day is advisable to avoid crowds and enjoy more comfortable conditions.
The attached lagoon serves as a breeding ground where pink flamingos and other water birds gather in large numbers during certain seasons. This makes the water area a key place for observing birds that many visitors overlook while enjoying the sand.
