Known as the beach of two seas, Porto Giunco Beach is a sandy strip with rose-tinted hues, wedged between turquoise Mediterranean waters and the Stagno di Notteri (Notteri Pond), home to pink flamingos. Overlooked by an Aragonese tower, this Villasimius beach is a highlight of the Area Marina Protetta di Capo Carbonara (Capo Carbonara Marine Protected Area), famous for its clear, shallow waters.
