Local communities of Bosa have maintained this coastal stretch intact, preserving maritime traditions and their connection with the natural territory.
The beach is reached via a path from a free parking area on the road between Bosa and Alghero, with a short downhill walk required. Wear sturdy shoes, as the terrain is uneven and can be rocky in places.
