Eroded Rocks & View of Golfo di Arzachena from Spiaggia Tre Monti With Clear Mediterranean Sea, Cairn and Distant Tanca Manna, Sardinia, Italy


Spiaggia Tre Monti is a small popular beach on the outskirts of Baia Sardinia. It is set on the Golfo di Arzachena which is the largest inlet (ria) along this coastline. It offers great views across the clear water to the opposite coast including Tanca Manna and the surrounding beaches and rugged landscape. The main attraction in Baia Sardinia is the beach, Cala Batistoni which is packed with families in the summer. This area was named the ‘Costa Smeralda’ in 1959 by the Prince Aga Khan. He became convinced that his investment from the previous year was worthwhile and set about transforming Gallura into a tourist attraction. It has the reputation as an exclusive playground for the rich and famous. Each summer Italian celebrities and the wealthy flock to this area. Baia Sardinia is aimed at the family market and there are many modern holiday complexes and hotels overlooking the bay. The Coastline of the Costa Smeralda in the North of Sardinia is fringed with ornate granite rocks. This soft rock has been sculpted, by the elements, into amazing formations. The natural areas on the Sardinian coast are protected by the Coastal Conservation Agency.
