Spiaggia Is Arutas

Beach Cabras, Sardinia, Italy

What to expect

Spiaggia Is Arutas is a beautiful beach located on the west coast of Sardinia, known for its unique sand made of tiny white and pinkish quartz pebbles that resemble little grains of rice. The beach is part of the Protected Marine Area of the Sinis Peninsula and offers pristine, clear waters perfect for snorkeling. The surrounding area is wild and untouched, with no buildings in sight, and features beautiful rock formations that can be climbed for panoramic views. The beach is family-friendly, but families with young children should be aware that the water is immediately deep and there is no classic sand to play with. The location makes it an incredible sunset spot, and it's also a popular spot for surfing and kite surfing. Nearby, there are other beautiful beaches, such as Mari Ermi, San Giovanni di Sinis, and Maimoni, which offer similar scenery and activities
