During your stay in northern Sardinia, a stop at the iconic beach of Stintino, universally recognized as one of the most beautiful in Europe, is a must. The water, thanks to the natural barrier, is always calm even when the mistral blows strongly. All around the Mediterranean maquis, especially the junipers, remind you that you are in Sardinia, despite the Caribbean aspect. Opposite is a small island with an Aragonese tower dating back to 1578. It is the symbol of La Pelosa, you can reach it on foot after crossing another delightful cove, La Pelosetta, which is next to its 'older sister'.
