Spiaggia San Giovanni di Sinis

San Giovanni di Sinis combines a beautiful west-coast beach with one of Sardinia’s most important archaeological landscapes, making it an ideal stop for travellers interested in both the sea and history.

Located in the municipality of Cabras in the province of Oristano, San Giovanni di Sinis Beach lies only a short distance from the archaeological site of Tharros. Few beaches in Sardinia combine coastal scenery and ancient history so closely.

The beach is easily reached by car from Oristano and is well signposted, with parking areas in the surrounding zone. Seasonal public transport may also connect Oristano with the Sinis Peninsula.

San Giovanni di Sinis is known for its clear water and pale sand, with sections of shallow seabed suitable for swimming and snorkelling in calm conditions.

Nature

The wider Sinis Peninsula supports varied coastal habitats and wildlife, making the area particularly interesting for nature lovers.

Services and family visits

Seasonal services are available in the village and surrounding area, including places to eat and drink. Combining the beach with Tharros makes for an easy family day with both seaside time and cultural interest.
