Tuerredda
Teulada, Tuerredda Beach
A sneak preview
Placed in a splendid inlet between Capo Malfatano and Capo Spartivento, it is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Sardinia for its very fine, light-coloured sand and transparent colour of the sea that recalls a Caribbean landscape.
Around the beach is verdant Mediterranean brush, where lentisk and juniper reign, and out in front, right in the middle, is the islet of the same name, a few hundred meters from the shore, reached after a few minutes swimming. The islet of Tuerredda, where the north-east wind prevails, is like a small world in which it is possible to spend a few moments, stretched out on the sand or on the warm ,smooth rocks, or exploring more inland, the kingdom of gulls and other birds, covered with ground-hugging, scented brush.
The limped seawaters, that gradually deepen, reaching some metres in depth near the islet, with waters that maintain constant cool temperatures, are the ideal environment for long swims, perhaps equipped with a mask and flippers.
The coast is characterised by alternating gentle and harsh stretches, small beaches separated by rocky outcrops, between the blue of the sea and the green of the spontaneous flora.
How to get there
From Cagliari go along the SS 195 main road towards Teulada. Turns right for Chia and continue for about ten kilometres until arriving at the well-signposted beach.
Useful information and facilities
The facilities on offer include a kiosk-cafe, a restaurant, a paid car park, some beach equipment, along with the rental of canoes and pedal boats and to the possibility to go on rib-dinghy trips.
