The territory of Villiasimius extends from the Monti dei Sette Fratelli park to Capo Carbonara. It is a municipality that is home to just over three thousand inhabitants but during the summer it is a popular tourist destination due to its white beaches and turquoise sea.

Villasimius is the holiday destination par excellence in the south-eastern part of Sardinia: crystal clear sea, white beaches, social life and good food will satisfy every wish.

But before continuing to describe the wonders of this area, I want to give you a tip: let ROBERTO follow you (bikegreen.eu/).
I arrived from Tuscany without a bike, but taking everything else with me, to rent one. Seeing me was enough for him to 'dress' me perfectly on a carbon racing bike from the shop (...you can find any type of bike, just contact him first).

I absolutely did not regret my bike and I was able to "explore" the coast road NORTH of Villasimius enjoying the view of the intense colors of the sea, clear and brilliant waters, granite rocks, delightful coves, long stretches of sand, lagoons and green hills, chosen for commercials, which infuse unique emotions. Villasimius is the pearl of the south, a dream tourist resort, whose population - less than four thousand residents in winter - multiplies in the warmer months with the arrival of tens of thousands of tourists. Its coast is formed by a 'crown' of beaches, interspersed with small cliffs and the promontory of Capo Carbonara. Starting from Capo Boi, the southern limit of the protected marine area, along the panoramic road you will find the splendid beaches of Porto sa Ruxi, Campus and Campulongu, all characterized by blue sea and white sand dunes, framed by Mediterranean scrub. Near the town, there is the very special beach of Rice, which differs from the others for the 'grains' that make it up. Beyond the modern tourist port, on the western side of Capo Carbonara, there are coves set among the rocks, including Cala Caterina. On the eastern side, get ready to discover breathtaking pearls, starting from Porto Giunco, with the Notteri pond behind it, the habitat of pink flamingos and other rare bird species. From the top of the promontory that dominates them, where an Aragonese tower stands, you will witness a dazzling picture that will remain imprinted in your mind (and in your photos): a double blue field, with various shades, practically 'two seas' separated by a strip of clear and thin sand, so much so that it looks like icing sugar. Going north, there are the beaches of Simius and Traias, and continuing Rio Trottu and Manunzas, which surround the wonderful Punta Molentis, another jewel of Villasimius.
Then get off your bike and one day go to the island of Serpentara, passing through the island of Cavoli and various shallows, a 'cemetery' of wrecks from every era, the marine area of Capo Carbonara offers underwater shows: swarms of confident fish they roam among depressions, ramparts and gullies colored yellow by sea daisies and red by gorgonians and covered by posidonia meadows.
