About this Beach

La Cinta is one of Sardinia's most spectacular beaches, a seemingly endless ribbon of fine white sand stretching for over 4 kilometers along the coast near San Teodoro. The beach separates the sparkling turquoise sea from the Stagno di San Teodoro lagoon, which is home to a colony of pink flamingos. The water at La Cinta is warm, shallow, and breathtakingly clear, with a sandy bottom that extends far from shore. The sheer length of the beach means there is always space to find a quieter spot, even during peak summer. From the southern end, views of Tavolara island dominate the horizon. La Cinta offers a perfect balance of natural beauty and modern beach amenities. Several beach clubs operate along its length, while large sections remain free and undeveloped. The adjacent town of San Teodoro provides excellent restaurants, nightlife, and shopping.

Alloraaa, we have been to both Cala Brandinchi and Lu impostu. I won’t dive deep into the details and will tell you that La Cinta is the by far best one among those three. No reservation and a huge parking lot make it even more pleasant especially if you are visiting during high season. Please don’t complain about the parking price, it is well worth it you are swimming in a paradise sea! Do Not get overwhelmed by the initial crowd by the restaurant and keep walking as much as you can till the middle/end of the beach. It is very long so you may walk for 10 to 15 mins. But you will definitely find a calmer and peaceful spot for yourself :) The rest is pure joy. The sand is FINE : white and thin… the water is beautifully turquoise, and the seabed has nothing but soft sand for kilometres. It’s just mind blowing. I got overwhelmed by the beauty of it. Then the depth is perfect, after 10-20 meters the water comes to your chest/neck level which is way better than having it on your knee no matter how much you move. I feel so lucky to be able to have this amazing experience with my loved ones, and even thinking back about that beach and the sea makes me happy every time ❤️ “Not overrated whatsoever!”

The beach is beautiful, white sand, turquoise clear water, but really crowded. You must pay for parking 1.50€ per hour, for shower also. Probably one of the most popular beaches in Sardinia.

An absolutely beautiful beach and easily my favorite on the northeast coast of Sardinia. The water is crystal clear and shallow for almost 300 meters, making it ideal for swimming. We visited in mid-September and the water was still pleasantly warm. Sunbeds and umbrellas are available to rent — we paid €40 for two chairs and one umbrella, which is in line with most beaches in the area (generally €30–50 depending on popularity). If I were to return, I would definitely purchase 2 lawn chairs and an umbrella at the supermarket and enjoy the experience like the locals do.

Beautiful beach , perfect water to swim, unfortunately very busy in summer months, you need to walk over 1 km the beach along to find little bit place for your own. But is a must visit place

Visited this beach during a windy afternoon. It is very packed with only 1-2 ft of distance between towels/beach mats. There is music by the restaurant if you like to vibe with house music with live percussion accompaniment. But otherwise, if you want to be away from loud crowds, I suggest walking further south near the campsite. Parking is €2/ hour flat rate. So if you stay for 2 hours and 20 minutes- you will be charged for 3 hours. It is the most expensive parking I have encountered and I'm not sure what you pay for since shower and toilet facilities are with the restaurant. The beach is sandy with light grey sand almost looking like white if you edit the photos. Overall, if you want to relax, this is not the place for you. But if you want a nice sandy beach in San Teodoro that doesn't need a booking, and when the ferry to Tavolara is cancelled, this is your next best option.
