Perda Longa di Baunei, Limestone monolith near Baunei, Sardinia, Italy

The natural monument rises 128 meters above the sea as a limestone tower, consisting of three separate sections with a central prominent peak.

Ancient maritime maps from 1753 identified this formation as L'Aguila, while the 1845 cartography by Della Marmora referred to it as Guglia.

The name Perda Longa reflects the Sardinian tradition of naming natural and artificial monoliths, with official maps designating it as Punta Pedra Longa.

A paved road extending 4 kilometers from SS 125 between Santa Maria Navarrese and Baunei leads to a parking area with restaurant facilities.

The limestone formation displays ongoing geological processes, where marine erosion and karst phenomena continue to shape its three distinct sections.
