The route from La Pintadera Sarda to Tuerredda Beach covers about 55 km, which can be reached in around an hour by car along scenic roads winding through Sulcis Iglesiente.
Tuerredda Beach stretches for over half a kilometer within a sheltered bay between Capo Malfatano and Capo Spartivento, in the territory of Teulada, at the southwestern tip of the island. To reach it from Carbonia, after crossing through Sulcis Iglesiente, you take the scenic Costa del Sud (provincial road 71): about 25 kilometers of curves overlooking the sea, offering truly breathtaking vistas. After passing the junction for Perdalonga, about one kilometer later, Tuerredda Beach appears from above, with its crescent of light sand, the characteristic islet out front – reachable in just a few minutes by swimming or pedal boat – and a backdrop often dotted with anchored sailboats that seem suspended on the crystal-clear water.
Sulcis Iglesiente: Wild Landscape and Crystal-Clear Sea

Sulcis Iglesiente and Tuerredda form a perfect pairing for those seeking pure nature. The coastline alternates between cliffs, rocky coves, and long stretches of light-colored sand, while the hinterland is made up of hills, old mines, holm oak woods, and nuraghes that tell the story of thousands of years of history.
Tuerredda Beach is a small protected bay with fine, light sand and a crystal-clear sea featuring endless shades of azure and turquoise. The water is transparent, making it ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and enjoying long, relaxing days under the sun. All around, the Mediterranean vegetation and the profile of the hills create an almost Caribbean-like setting, but with the strong and wild character of Sardinia.
Choosing a La Pintadera Sarda B&B in Carbonia allows you to experience this nature without sacrificing convenience: you are close enough to the sea to go and return in a single day, but also perfectly positioned to explore other beaches such as Porto Pino, Cala Domestica, Masua Beach, or the coves of Sant’Antioco Island.
