About Spiaggia delle Dune
Le Dune beach (Spiaggia delle Dune) in the locality of Porto Pino is a gorgeous lick of silky white sand with a length of nearly two kilometers. It is located right on the border between the provinces of Cagliari and Carbonia-Iglesias, south-east of the small coastal villages of Porto Pino and Porto Pinetto. Le Dune faces south-west, offering views of the Punta Tonnara and Punta Menga headlands in the north. Also known as White Sands, this masterpiece of nature is backed by Stagno del Corvo and Stagno de Foxi, two lagoons where migratory birds including flamingos come to spend their summer days. Le Dune beach can get up to 300 meters wide and is one of the widest beaches in South Sardinia. You’ll be mesmerized by the majestic rolling dunes behind Spiaggia delle Dune. These can rise to 30 meters. Juniper trees and other Mediterranean greenery cover the inland dunes to complete the beautiful scenery. The contrast between the white dunes and the astonishingly blue waters will literally take your breath away! Beach umbrellas, deck chairs and pedal boats are available for rent. You’ll also find a few beach bars and eateries. The seabed of Le Dune beach has a gradual slope; it is suitable for families with children. Beach activities include underwater fishing and snorkeling. Long walks, or an early morning run along the shoreline spring to mind as well, as Spiaggia delle Dune connects to Porto Pino Beach to the north. In total, this pristine arc of white sand is nearly 4 kilometers long. Should you decide to pay Le Dune beach a visit, be sure to bring a camera because this is as scenic as the beaches of South Sardinia can get!
