Spiaggia Pittulongu: Weather Today

📅 Thursday, April 30, 2026
Today is unfortunately not a suitable day for a visit to the beach. You should plan your outing for another time, as the conditions are quite unsettled. We are expecting thunderstorms throughout the day, which will make staying outdoors both unpleasant and potentially unsafe. With thick clouds covering the sky and a high risk of rain, there is no opportunity for sunbathing. The air temperature will reach 19.8 °C, and the water is chilly at 18.0 °C, meaning it is not appropriate for swimming. Please stay indoors and avoid the coast until the weather clears up, as the combination of wind and storms makes for a very poor experience at the shore.
