The beaches of San Teodoro

Cala Brandinchi Beach (or Little Tahiti)

To reach this stunning location, take the Strada Statale 125 heading north toward Olbia and San Teodoro. At the village of Lutturai, turn right and continue along an unpaved road surrounded by captivating scenery.

Brandinchi is one of the most extraordinary gems of our coastline — a place that evokes the exotic landscapes of Polynesia, with its vibrant colors and crystal-clear waters. Also known as "Little Tahiti," this beach features shallow waters and ultra-fine white sand, bordered by lush pine forests and dense Mediterranean vegetation, including junipers, thistles, and reeds.

Perfect for families with children, the area is well-equipped with a nature-immersed parking area and full services.

PUNTA EST Beach - Coda Cavallo

Along the northeastern coast of Sardinia stretches a stunningly beautiful stretch of shoreline, part of a protected natural area. Its unique shape resembles a horse’s tail and offers a truly enchanting view.

This strip of land, covered in typical Mediterranean vegetation, extends into the crystal-clear waters of the Tavolara – Capo Coda Cavallo Marine Reserve. Nestled against this peninsula lies a magnificent golden sand beach known as Punta Est. Measuring 600 meters in length, it is the easternmost point of the promontory and belongs to the territory of San Teodoro. The lush nature surrounding the beach enhances the allure of the sea, with hues ranging from turquoise to emerald, while the air is filled with the scents of classic Mediterranean flora, including myrtle, juniper, mastic, and strawberry tree.

In front of the beach, clear waters open up, dotted with rocks and small islands. The closest is Proratora, located right opposite the tip of the cape and accessible via a path surrounded by lush greenery. Just beyond, you can see the island of Molara and, in the distance, the imposing and distinctive silhouette of Tavolara.

Why visit?

This beach is an ideal retreat for those seeking an unspoiled natural haven, sheltered from the wind and nestled within a marine area rich in beauty and exploration opportunities. Nearby, numerous coves and enchanting beaches offer even more hidden gems waiting to be discovered.

Isuledda Beach - San Teodoro

A charming corner of Sardinia’s northeastern coast marks the southern boundary of the Tavolara Marine Protected Area. Here, a long stretch of soft, pale sand meets a sea with endless shades of blue, while behind it lies a lush expanse of Mediterranean vegetation.

This beach perfectly embodies the essence of San Teodoro’s natural wonders: a shoreline of fine white sand, crystal-clear waters shifting from turquoise to emerald green, and transparent seabeds. The landscape is further enriched by the local flora typical of Gallura, which surrounds the beach with vibrant colors and scents — the bright yellow of broom, the deep green of myrtle and juniper, and the vivid red of strawberry tree fruits.

L’Isuledda, stretching over 500 meters, is located just a few kilometers south of San Teodoro’s town center, resting on the promontory that marks the southern edge of the marine protected area. It’s a perfect spot for those seeking relaxation and unspoiled nature.
