Spiaggia di Girin, Beach on Isola di San Pietro, Sardinia, Italy.
Spiaggia di Girin is a beach on Isola di San Pietro stretching roughly 150 meters along a sheltered bay between two rocky outcrops. The water appears clear and turquoise while the shoreline combines light sand with scattered seashells.
The beach belongs to Carloforte, founded in 1738 by Ligurian coral fishers who relocated from the Tunisian island of Tabarka. This community shaped the island's character for centuries to come.
The Green Flag certification from Italian pediatricians recognizes the beach as particularly suitable for families due to its shallow waters and safe environment.
The beach sits about 3 kilometers from Carloforte port and is relatively easy to reach. Water temperatures remain comfortable for swimming from May through October.
The surrounding basalt cliffs display rich red hues that intensify in certain light conditions. Emerging rocks and small reefs divide the shoreline into two distinct sections with different characteristics.
