Spiaggia di Tuerredda

Spiaggia di Tuerredda is a beach in southwestern Sardinia that stretches between two capes with a wide expanse of white sand. The beach has loungers, umbrellas, restaurants, rental shops for water equipment, a large parking area, and a small island visible just offshore that can be reached by swimming.

An ancient stone tower from the Bronze Age, built by Sardinia's earliest inhabitants, stands near the beach. This structure shows that the area has been important to people living on the island for thousands of years.

The name Tuerredda comes from a watchtower that once stood on the small island facing the beach, part of Sardinia's coastal defense network. Visitors can see how this lookout point shaped the way people have used and perceived this stretch of coast over centuries.

The beach is easy to access on foot and has plenty of parking space for both cars and larger vehicles. It is best to visit early in the day or avoid school holiday periods when the beach becomes crowded on hot days.

A small island lies just meters from the shore and can be reached by swimming, creating an unusual geographical feature for this part of Sardinia. Many visitors do not notice or attempt to swim out to this nearby island, missing one of the beach's most distinctive characteristics.
