Coastal Areas of Sardinia

Latest page update: 13 March 2025

By: Dion Protani

The various coastal areas of Sardinia contain some of the island region's most beautiful beaches and seaside towns.

One of the most picturesque is the Orosei Gulf on the east coast of Sardinia which faces out on to the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Named after Orosei which is at once a hill town and beach resort, the eponymous Gulf stretches around 30 kilometres south to the small peninsula of Punta Pedra Longa. On the way, it passes a clutch of stunning beaches including Cala Mariolu, Cala Luna and Cala Goloritzé, which for many people is Sardinia's best beach.
