S’Arena Scoada
S’Arena Scoada lies in the northern part of the Sinis Peninsula, just south of Putzu Idu. Fine sand, quartz fragments, limestone rocks and bright green-blue water create a landscape that differs from the longer sandy beaches nearby.
Sand, quartz and rock
The shoreline mixes golden sand and small quartz fragments with smooth rocks and sections of pale limestone.
The sea
The water can take on intense green and blue tones. The seabed is mainly sandy but changes around the rocky sections.
Wind
Capo Mannu is one of the most exposed areas in the Oristano region. Windsurfing and kitesurfing are common, while swimmers should always assess conditions carefully.
Putzu Idu
The two beaches are separated by a short rocky stretch and belong to the same coastal system. In the Trip Planner they can be treated as alternatives rather than compulsory consecutive stops.
Views across the Sinis
From the coast, views open towards Mal di Ventre and the cliffs of the promontory. S’Arena Scoada is especially well suited to itineraries focused on the sea and coastal scenery.
