The sea in Villasimius: what are the nicest beaches?
Infinite beaches, crystalline water and hidden coves. As well as the sea, Villasimius also offers, as does the rest of Sardinia, ancient traditions and excellent food. All good reasons to organise a relaxing holiday here.
Unlike the northern part of the island, which is more famous and acclaimed due to its popularity with celebrities, this village in South Sardinia is decidedly more relaxed, but no less charming.
Here is a short list of the things to see in Villasimius.
What to do in Villasimius: the attractions you simply cannot miss
Staying in Villasimius means having the chance to mix up your days by simply relaxing under your beach umbrella and spending some afternoons discovering the main attractions here.
There are just so many, but here are the ones you cannot leave out of your travel plan.
Sant’Antioco: grottoes and Sardinian history
This island is within an island, connected to the mainland by a sandy isthmus. There are dozens of things to do and see here in Sant’Antioco.
Why not take a boat trip to discover the splendid marine grottoes or stop off at the Ferruccio Barreca museum, teeming with testimonies to the Pre-Nuragic and Nuragic Ages?
Trekking through the trials of Chia
For lovers of nature and adventurous strolls, it’s well worth visiting Chia, another coastal location in the province of South Sardinia.
There are many trails to choose from, on foot or in Mountain bikes, facing the coast and granting amazing panoramas.
Villasimius: the nicest beaches
In the province of South Sardinia, the nicest beaches are in Villasimius.
There are at least twenty to visit, and if you don’t have much time, there are a few really special ones you must visit.
Porto sa Ruxi
The things you do in Villasimius must include a trip to Porto sa Ruxi. Lush flora and fauna abound, and the shallow water is perfect for lovers of snorkelling and diving.
Porto sa Ruxi is part of the protected marine area of Capo Carbonara, and its beaches are perfect for everyone, including families with children.
‘Spiaggia del riso’ Beach
The name [Rice Beach] tells you what you will see with your own eyes once you get to this beach in Capo Carbonara. The sand consists of little white, and sparkling, grains of granite quartz. The sea has done the rest: it has sanded them and whitened them like grains of rice. The water is shallow and the seabed is sandy, perfect for kids, too.
Campulongu Beach
Campulongu Beach is another of the best beaches in Villasimius, and has its own special atmosphere, almost Caribbean. All down to the white sand, the transparent water and the dense vegetation surrounding the beach and its wonderful dunes. This is also part of the protected marine area here, and is just five minutes by car from Villasimius.
Where to stay in Villasimius
The South of the Island has its own special charm: the sea in Villasimius never lets you down and the beaches are not as crowded as they are in the North.
Of the villages in Sardinia, the VOI Tanka Village stands out as a top-class facility in the World of Hospitality. This resort has very high standards, all mod cons and a whole load of great activities: recreation, sport, a wellness centre and a vast range of top spots: great bars, pizzerias and restaurants. There are special areas for the kids and even a nursery for the really little ones (aged 0 - 2).
Finally, just like the VOI Colonna Village, which faces the Golfo Aranci, the VOI Tanka Village has a splendid, fully-equipped beach with fine sand, bathed by turquoise water.
