Ezzi Mannu

Ezzi Mannu is a long beach in the municipality of Stintino, facing the Gulf of Asinara. Compared with the area’s most famous bays, it offers a more open landscape and a greater sense of space, with a pale shoreline and still-natural sections.

A wide coastline

The beach extends for a considerable distance, allowing visitors to move away from the busiest entrances. Pale sand and small light-coloured grains create a bright shoreline, especially on calm days.

Sea and wind

Its open position makes Ezzi Mannu more sensitive to conditions in the Gulf of Asinara. Check wind and sea before choosing the beach, particularly when travelling with children.

An alternative to the busiest bays

Stintino is best known for La Pelosa, but Ezzi Mannu shows a different side of the coast. It suits travellers who prefer longer beaches and a less built-up setting.

Stintino and surroundings

The beach can be combined with Stintino or another destination around the gulf without overloading the day with too many stops.

Protecting the coastline

Dunes and coastal vegetation are fragile environments. Use existing access points and never remove sand or natural materials from the beach.
