Punta Molentis, a hidden gem on the southeastern coast of Sardinia, enchants visitors with its unique landscape. Divided into intimate coves, it is framed by fragrant Mediterranean shrubs and vibrant flowering cacti. The crescent-shaped beach is nestled between a rocky promontory and sculpted granite formations. Its shallow, sandy seabed and crystalline waters, shifting from emerald green to deep turquoise, make it a paradise for swimming, snorkeling, and relaxation.

Explore the wonders of southeastern Sardinia with a sailing tour to Cavoli Island, near the stunning beaches of Villasimius and Porto Giunco.
