Spiaggia di Porto Istana

Spiaggia di Porto Istana is a beach on the northeastern coast of Sardinia with four white sandy coves separated by pink granite rocks. The shoreline includes rocky outcrops and shallow bays where visitors can find spots for swimming and lounging.

The area has been inhabited since ancient times and is bordered to the north by a protected marine zone at Capo Coda Cavallo. This conservation area has helped maintain the natural character of the location over the centuries.

The area around the beach is covered with Mediterranean plants typical of Sardinia, including rockrose, arbutus, and wild olive trees that frame the shoreline. These plants create a natural setting that visitors encounter while walking along the coast.

The beach provides parking facilities, public restrooms, and equipment rental options during the summer months. Accessible pathways and facilities ensure that visitors of all abilities can enjoy the location.

Limestone cliffs of Tavolara Island rise dramatically from the water and are visible from every point along the shoreline. This natural landmark dominates the view and shapes the visual character of the entire location.
