Advice about roads
S.S. 197, S.S. 196 and especially S.S. 131 are fast-flowing freeways. Avoid driving during the warmest hours in the summer.

How to reach the beaches by land
Costa Verde beaches are very beautiful but not so easy to reach. You have to go beyond hills, which separate Arbus and Guspini from the coast, if you want to reach the sea. Roads are very narrow, not always paved and above all very winding. Driving on a similar road for 15 km will seem to take a very long time!

However nature and wild landscapes lovers will be satisfied. It is beautiful to see the sea again, where the hills start sloping down towards the coast. The dunes in Piscinas are indescribable.

An advice for carsick people: drive slowly and don’t travel during the warnest hours, especially in the summer.
The northern road is more comfortable: drive along the S.S. 126 towards Arborea. Go through the village and on towards Marceddì. Go beyond the bridge, which crosses the pond. Then turn right after about 200 m. Go on straight as far as Costa Verde.
