Spectacular stretch of sandy coastline more than ten kilometres long in the main town of southern Ogliastra, in central-eastern Sardinia

Clear, fine, soft sand, clear, iridescent blue waters, contrasts of light created by the reflections of the sun. Between Monte Ferru, rich in woods and paths, and Quirra lies the Marina di Tertenia, about ten kilometres from the main centre of southern Ogliastra. It stretches for twelve kilometres, made up of splendid sandy beaches, interspersed with rocky shores, including Foxi Manna (large mouth) and Melisenda known as Foxi Murdegu, both of which offer numerous services: beach and boat equipment hire, camping and hotels, bars and restaurants, and ample parking, also suitable for campers. Behind the coastline are hills with lush Mediterranean scrub.
