Coaquaddus is a long beach characterized by large-grained white sand, divided into two parts by a massive rock and bordered by limestone cliffs. It represents one of the gems of the island of Sant'Antioco. Its name, which means "horses' tail", derives from the sinuosity of the coast with numerous inlets.

Beautiful sandy beach in the south-eastern part of the island of Sant'Antioco. Its characteristic is the changeability of its depth that changes depending on whether the storm accumulates sand on the shore or carries it away. From one season to another Its depth can change even by many meters. Excellent starting point for a walk or bike ride towards Capo Sperone, or a short walk of a few kilometers to Maladroxia.
