About this Beach

La Pelosa is one of the most iconic beaches in the Mediterranean, located near the town of Stintino on the northwestern tip of Sardinia. Its shallow, crystal-clear turquoise waters and fine white sand create a Caribbean-like atmosphere against the dramatic backdrop of the ancient Aragonese watchtower on Isola Piana. The beach is part of a protected marine area, ensuring pristine waters and abundant marine life. Limited daily access (max 1,500 visitors) preserves its unspoiled beauty.

The most beautiful beach I have ever seen. You will need to make a reservation and bring mats which are mandatory

This is one of the most popular beaches in Sardinia. The water is clean and transparent. We went off-season (mid-October) and were positively surprised that they don`t charge for parking now. Better arrive early in the morning because an hour later the parking was almost full. The weather in October turned out to be perfect for beach time - less crowds and more parking space. Another positive surprise is that they did not charge us for a beach towel mat - there was no one to look after this. Also being off-season we did not have to make a reservation and just popped-up. The beach is suitable for families with children - no waves, calm water. Totally recommend but come here in October.

Sure the water is beautiful, but you have to share it with hundreds of other people. Way too crowded. I thought that needing to make a reservation and pay ahead of time that they limited the number of people but that's not the case. We stayed the whole day to get our money's worth, but the beach was too crowded. There are beaches that are just as beautiful, free, and not full of people. Highly overrated.

Super crowded, and impossible to find parking after 10:30 am, even in late September, on a weekday. This is a "fake" beach where social validation, digital culture, and identity performance is the main attraction. By the way, you'll need to make reservations a month in advance. Parking is super expensive, if you can find any spaces. This is your typical Instagram scam. That being said, the water is clear and shallow, a perfect swimming pool. Come here early to enjoy it. Oh, no reservations required if you're not planning to lie on the sandy beach.
