A low-slung wind comes off the Indian Ocean and the dunegrass leans into it as the guide sets the pace along Sardinia Bay’s shoreline. Salt crust beads on boots, seabirds quarter the sky, and the surf pulls at a line of exposed rocks where rock pools glint like small, tidal mirrors. The walk moves from the dune crest down the east-side stairs to a corner beach and a wave-cut platform that still bears the grooves of higher seas.

Time it with the tide
Low tide exposes the richest rock pools and makes the wave-cut platform safest and most interesting to explore.
Wear grippy footwear
Closed-toe shoes with good traction handle wet rock, sand and stair descents better than sandals.
Protect against sun and wind
Bring a brimmed hat, UV sunscreen and a windproof layer—coastal wind can make temperatures feel much cooler.
Respect the MPA rules
Do not remove shells or organisms, avoid trampling dune vegetation, and follow your guide’s instructions to minimize impact.
