Sardinia\u2019s beaches for the most part feature golden sand that you can sink your toes into. Then there\u2019s the turquoise water and the bustling resort towns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With so many places to discover, you\u2019re really spoiled for choice. We\u2019ve narrowed down the top sunny escapes on the island to the five best beaches\u2014that are not in Costa Smeralda\u2014on Sardinia for a summer holiday. So, pack that bathing suit, grab your sunglasses and head to the island writer DH Lawrence called, \u201cSomething else. It is like freedom itself.\u201d\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>La Pelosa di Stintino<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Situated on the northwest end of the island, just one-and-a-half miles from Stintino, a former fishing village, La Pelosa di Stintino is a small stretch of paradise in an area dotted with bustling resorts. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expect compact, fine sand that is almost white in hue. Lay back on your lounger and watch the water change colour, from light blue to azure to turquoise, depending on the position of the sun. The beach is fronted by tongues of rocky land with an almost lunar appearance and a small island which houses the Pelosa tower, a fortification of Catalan-Aragonese origin. Today, the tower seems to emerge like a solitary witness from the waters.  \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"40420\" src=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_299922290-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_299922290-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_299922290-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_299922290-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_299922290-1568x1046.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_299922290-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_299922290.jpg 1900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>The Pelosa Tower is the most famous tower in the region and has become an icon of the beach itself.

Credit: Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d rather go on foot, the journey takes about an hour and starts in Golgo di Baunei, near the Su Porteddu locality, winding its way through a forest of Mediterranean scrub, with enchanting views and vantage points, and ancient sheepfolds carved into the rock. Although it\u2019s a long trek, the path is well-formed and fairly easy, but bring shoes and plenty of water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that effort, whether by sea or foot, is worth it when you reach Cala Goloritz\u00e8. The seemingly incongruous combination of sea and mountains flows together to create something powerful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the shore is a bit pebbly, the water at Cala Goloritz\u00e8 boasts shades of green and turquoise, and the underwater springs provide constant changes in hue. The sea here is full of fish, particularly sea bream, and snorkelling or scuba diving afford <br>real treasures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this is one of the most picturesque beaches in all of Italy, the area is about as spartan as you can get i.e. no restaurants or hotels nearby. Bring your own food and water but remember to take all your trash with you when you leave. Access to the beach costs five euros and is available from 7:30 am to 7:30 pm  <\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Sardinia      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Sardinia  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to extend your stay, lay your head in Baunei at the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sp.booking.com\/hotel\/it\/b-amp-bissicoro.it.html?aid=1500264&amp;label=goeu_DE_Berlin_IT_Baunei_ow_1_0_1_id0_mag_com_it_EUR_Other_x_other_220520_376217_356980\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Issicoro B&amp;B<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

The charming village, crisscrossed with alleys and cosy boutiques and shops, affords guests many sports for a pleasant aperitif. Baccusardus serves a wide selection of Italian and Old World wines as well as craft beer such as Ichnusa beer, which can be accompanied by local cheese and antipasti.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are looking for a little <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">movida<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you\u2019ll find a lively bar and disco scene to keep the night going. However, the perfect beaches that dot the area make Villasimius such a delight. All are worthy of a detour but Porto Giunco, a tropical-looking beach with fine, white sand that takes on shades of pink, is about as perfect as you<\/span><br><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">can get. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The seabed here is shallow, naturally allowing one to relax. Wade in the waters and let your troubles wash away. The central part of the beach boasts a homonymous pond where pink flamingos can be seen. On the right side, on a promontory, admire the remains of an ancient Spanish watchtower from the 16th century, which can also be reached by following a path from the beach. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"40468\" src=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_433807351-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_433807351-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_433807351-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_433807351-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_433807351-1568x1046.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_433807351-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_433807351.jpg 1900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>In Villasimius you will find a charming fusion of picturesque beaches and hip nightlife.

Where the rocks come to the surface, you\u2019ll find rich marine life, to be explored leisurely with a mask and snorkel. The cove is equipped with all amenities and, in addition to renting a sunbed and umbrella, you can rent paddle boats, kayaks and canoes for a more intimate trip on the water.

Credit: Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is no mystery that some of the most beautiful beaches in Sardinia can be found on the Maddalena archipelago, which comprises 62 islands and islets. The two most important\u2014and the only ones inhabited\u2014are La Maddalena and Caprera. La Maddalena is easily accessible by ferry from Palau and, in itself, offers an incredible sensory experience: The water as far as the eye can see takes on colours ranging from turquoise to emerald, and the entire area, part of the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park, is populated by numerous species of marine mammals, from dolphins to fin whales. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From La Maddalena, take a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.it\/-l140956\/?partner_id=PGSHZ7K\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tour<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the island of Budelli. Spiaggia Rosa aka the Pink Beach owes its name to the surprising colour of the sand, due to microorganisms that live inside the shells that wash up on shore. These microorganisms mix with pieces of coral and granite, creating the bubblegum hue. The clear waters of the sea break on the pinkish shoreline, creating a marvellous visual effect, which was all captured in Michelangelo Antonioni&#8217;s film, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Red Desert<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Access to the beach, as mentioned, is prohibited, to safeguard its fragile ecology, but you can enjoy the spectacle from the tour boat. It will remind you of the words of DH Lawrence: freedom itself. <\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Sardinia      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Sardinia  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-12 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"40492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_2072691947-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40492\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_2072691947-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_2072691947-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_2072691947-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_2072691947-1568x1046.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_2072691947-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/shutterstock_2072691947.jpg 1900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>The unique \u201cSpiaggia rosa\u201d on the island of Budelli can only be admired from afar.
