Spiaggia Pittulongu

Spiaggia Pittulongu is a large, sandy beach located in Olbia, Sardinia. Known for its clear, blue waters, it is a popular destination for swimming, sunbathing, and windsurfing. The beach is backed by pine trees, adding to its natural beauty. The water depth is not too deep, making it a safe choice for families with young children. The beach is spacious enough to accommodate a large number of visitors, with ample space for setting up umbrellas.

The beach is about 20 minutes from the city center of Olbia and can be reached by taking bus number 4. The buses are not too crowded and run frequently. However, visitors are advised to pay attention to the bus schedule as the service ends at 8 p.m.

Spiaggia Pittulongu offers a mix of commercial and natural experiences. Visitors have the option to rent a beach chair or bring their own towel to lay on the sand. There are several restaurants and bars in the vicinity, providing a variety of dining options. The beach also offers free parking for those who prefer to drive.

Despite its popularity, the beach maintains a peaceful atmosphere. However, due to its large opening to the sea, the water can sometimes become wavy, adding an element of excitement for windsurfers. The beach is part of the town/village of Pittulongu, which is home to at least five other beautiful beaches, making it a great base for beach hopping on the Costa Smeralda.
