About Spiaggia di Su Portu

Su Portu beach (Spiaggia di Su Portu) is located right in front of Campeggio Torre Chia, just a few hundred meters north-east of Chia beach. Shaped like a half moon and bordered by a cliff, this beach is 250 meters long and 40 meters wide on average. Facing south-east, it offers wonderful views of the local points of interest: Torre di Chia, featuring ruins of the ancient Phoenician city of Bithia (Acropoli di Bithia), and Isola Su Cardolinu. From the beach, Torre di Chia can be accessed on foot via a winding footpath up the small hill.

Just in front of Isola Su Cardolinu, there’s another small beach which can be accessed via a 300 meter long footpath. As it can be seen as an extension of Chia beach, Spiaggia di Su Portu too is a favorite spot among the windsurfing crowd and water sports enthousiasts. The nearby beach of Chia is host to the yearly Chia Classic, a windsurfing, kitesurfing and surfing event that takes place in April and June. Chances are there will be quite some wind from the Mistral at Su Portu, so be sure to bring something to weight down your beach towels. A large parking area can be found nearby. Su Portu has shallow waters, it is a very nice beach for families with children.
