The beach is completely free and public. Save money by bringing your own food and drinks, as kiosk prices are higher than inland cafes. Parking costs around 1-2 EUR per hour in the paid lots closer to the kiosks.

Greiti faktai: Stretching 8 kilometers along the Golfo degli Angeli, this urban beach is where Cagliari locals flock to escape the summer heat. The waters remain unusually calm and shallow thanks to the protective curve of the gulf, making it safe for swimmers of all ages.
Akcentai: Four historic wooden kiosks, known as "chioschi," have anchored the beach's social life since the 1950s, each with its own devoted following and distinct personality. During golden hour, the Sella del Diavolo promontory casts a dramatic shadow across the bay while the limestone cliffs glow amber, creating a scene that has inspired Sardinian painters for decades.
Vidiniai patarimai
- Rent a bike along the Lungomare Promenade, which stretches nearly the full length of the beach and offers the best views without fighting for parking.
- Head to the far eastern end near Margine Rosso if you want quieter water and fewer crowds than the central kiosk areas.
- Bring water shoes in July and August when the seabed develops a thin layer of algae that can be slippery.
- The kiosk closest to the Sella del Diavolo trailhead serves the best gelato and has the most shaded seating.
