A thin, curved strip of very fine quartz grains, almost two kilometres long, separates the turquoise sea from the Sa Salina Manna pond. It is the splendid beach of Putzu Idu, called ‘cala Saline’ and sheltered from the mistral, which extends north of the magnificent s’Arena Scoada and reaches the beach of Mandriola. The quartz sand is white and soft. The waters offer, with the changing light, suggestive shades from green to blue. The sandy seabed is shallow for dozens of metres.
