If you accept the fact that getting there takes a bit more effort, that it may be a bit uncomfortable and you get zero services, you may have the spot to yourself even in peak season. This was taken moments ago. We are literally the only ones here. Placing the umbrella took a bit of engineering work 😅

It’s not summer in Cagliari unless you make it to Mari Pintau at least once. This is one of my favorite coves in South Sardinia, a place I’d admire on the drive from Cagliari to Costa Rei when I was a child, begging my dad to stop so I could swim there. The first time I visited, I was 19 and that’s when I discovered this is a pebbly beach, but the sea has a beautiful sandy bottom and it’s ever so clear. I took these photos at the beginning of the month. I visited with my friend of Marghe 🇮🇹 + Nick 🇦🇺 and added a swim all the way to the nearby Cala Regina for fun (well, we swam for 2,500 meters in the end!).

It’s one of my summer rituals in Sardinia, one that I always think is worth it.

Sardinian summer evenings done properly: a glass of local wine, vineyards in front of me, and the sun disappearing behind the mountains.

No beach. No crowds. No fancy beach clubs. Just the countryside, a very good glass of wine, and one of those sunsets that makes you stay for another.

I’ll take this over Porto Cervo any day.

Sunday was one of those days that reminds me why exploring Sardinia from the sea is always worth it.

We spent the day on a boat tour around San Pietro Island, stopping to swim wherever the water looked too good to resist. And, as you can see, that happened quite often.

The coastline here is completely different from much of Sardinia: dark volcanic cliffs, strange rock formations, tiny coves and incredibly clear water.

No rushing from one famous beach to another. Just cruising along the coast, swimming, snorkeling and stopping in quiet bays along the way.

And yes, the sea really was this color.

When people think of Sardinia, they usually picture beaches. My friends and I drove inland instead and went to Bidonì, a tiny village in the heart of Sardinia with just 111 residents, for one of the dinners organized by VEGHU . The setting couldn’t have been more beautiful. We watched the sun set over the countryside before sitting down at a table overlooking the village, surrounded by stone houses, complete silence, and lovely background music.

The menu was entirely vegan, built around Veghu Lab’s incredible range of artisanal plant-based cheeses. We tasted everything from fresh cheeses to blue-veined varieties, along with beautifully prepared dishes that honestly surprised everyone at the table.

You definitely don’t have to be vegan to appreciate the craftsmanship behind what they do.

Yes, it’s a bit of a drive. But sometimes the best experiences are the ones you’ll never find in a typical guidebook.

Have you ever visited one of Sardinia’s tiny inland villages?

My sister, my brother in law and I went on a sunset kayak tour here in Cagliari yesterday and got to admire the clearest water you can imagine, the sun set behind the city and the full moon popping up from the sea. It was peaceful and just perfect 🤩 📷👉🏻 Elisabetta Cemanonsivede

Some birthdays call for a big celebration. Mine called for a weekend by the sea.

Last weekend, my friends Manuela, Grazia and I escaped to Santa Maria Navarrese, one of my favorite corners of Sardinia. We spent our days swimming in unbelievably clear water, wandering around the harbor, enjoying long dinners, and simply slowing down.

These photos were all taken at Spiaggia Centrale and around the village. They are a reminder that you don’t always need to travel far or have a packed itinerary to enjoy Sardinia. Sometimes, all you need is crystal-clear water, good company, and a place that makes it easy to switch off.

Have you ever been to Santa Maria Navarrese?

What would you change about Sardinia?

A question for everyone who’s already visited the island.

If you could change one thing about Sardinia, what would it be?

I’ll go first.

I was born and raised here, and for me the answer is public transport. While you can get around by bus and train, I don’t recommend it for most visitors. Outside the main routes, connections are limited, journeys are slow, and many of the island’s best beaches and natural areas are difficult to reach without a car.

I’d love to see a better-connected public transport network, both for visitors and for those of us who live here.

Now it’s your turn.

What would you change about Sardinia?

Keep it respectful—I’m genuinely curious to hear your thoughts.

Why is Cala Zafferano so untouched?

Because getting there isn’t easy.

Located near Teulada on Sardinia’s southwestern coast, Cala Zafferano lies inside a military area. During the summer, the only practical way to visit is by boat—there is no road access, and hiking isn’t allowed.

That restricted access has helped preserve one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in southern Sardinia.

Expect:

• Crystal-clear turquoise water.
• No beach clubs or facilities.
• A quiet, unspoiled setting.
• Excellent swimming and snorkeling.

Boat tours from Teulada and Chia usually stop here together with other nearby coves.

I’ve put together a complete guide explaining the access rules, what to expect, and the best ways to visit. You’ll find the link in my bio.

There are beaches you visit... and beaches you remember long after you’ve left.

Su Giudeu is one of those places. The soft golden sand, the unbelievably clear turquoise water, and the small islet just offshore create a landscape that hardly seems real.

I’ve been here more times than I can count, and it never disappoints. Whether you’re spending the day swimming, walking along the shore, or simply taking in the view, it’s easy to understand why this is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Sardinia.

Have you been to Su Giudeu yet?
