PORTO  PALMAS  BEACH

Location
About 40 kilometres north-west of Alghero 

How to Get There
Leave Alghero in the direction of Porto Torres. After about 20 kilometres, having passed the Joanne Abbas roadman’s house, turn left towards Palamadula.
Leaving Palmadula, turn left for l’Argentiera (S.P. 18). After 2.5 km, at the end of a long downhill stretch with hairpin bends and curves, on the right is Porto Palmas Beach.

Description
This beach, sloping gently towards the sea, is made up of pebbles and sand remaining from mineral-processing. The crescent-shaped beach is 20/30 metres long and slightly less wide. Crystal-clear water with pebbles and rocks on the bottom. Open sea with possible undercurrents offshore. A characteristic of the rocks and stones in this area is that if seen from above, the sun makes them look silver-coloured. To the side of the beach, we can still see the interesting remains of the mining installation, which was abandoned in the ’60s.

Facilities
Refreshment stand, parking.
