For those coming from the Cuglieri area, located in a barren territory with frequent demanding and tiring ups and downs, if faced with the heat and the weight of the luggage, the long descent towards the sea after so much land brings to mind the cry of Greek soldiers at the sight of the longed-for sea: "Thalatta, Thalatta!". The arrival, then, in a pretty place like S. Caterina Pittinuri, with its bay embraced by high promontories and a long beach of clear water, sand, stones and tamarisks, repays any effort.

Santa Caterina di Pittinuri is a seaside resort in the municipality of Cuglieri. The inlet with the two tips of white limestone rock that embrace the beach makes it unique and scenic. There is a café, a large picnic area, and a slipway for fishing boats to take out to sea.
