There are at least ten excellent reasons to visit this enchanting bay—and absolutely none not to. Despite Sardinia’s thousand beaches, Solanas knows how to stand out from the rest, doing so with both charm and style.
Reason 1: The beach is exactly what you expect from Sardinia: a wide, soft, golden sandy shore stretching for a full kilometre, perfect for indulging in your own idea of relaxation.
Reason 2: The sea is crystal-clear, inviting, and sheltered by the half-moon shape of the gulf, with a sandy, shallow seabed for the first few metres.
Reason 3: Spacious parking areas stretch along much of the beach—ideal even for the laziest visitors.
Reason 4: Refreshment points, facilities, and beach equipment rentals are readily available.
Reason 5: Thanks to its winds, the bay is a welcoming spot for windsurf and kitesurf enthusiasts.
Reason 6: It’s equally appealing for diving lovers, with fascinating underwater scenery.
Reason 7: Those seeking new perspectives can explore the headland with the Capo Boi Tower, a vantage point offering breathtaking views.
Reason 8: For the more adventurous, there’s a diving school offering unique underwater experiences.
Reason 9: Just behind the beach lies the village of Solanas, complete with all services and conveniences.
Reason 10: The area’s most unique tradition: an underwater nativity scene that, for the past thirty years, has been placed every December by divers in a small cave beneath the sea, about a hundred metres from the shore.
