Particular little port with the train station practically next to it

History and Origins of the Red Rocks of Arbatax The surrounding area was once a rich and profitable mine. Here, miners extracted red porphyry—from which the rocks are made—a lava stone that, at the time, was used to build and beautify the port, villages, and nearby towns.

Recommended for a stop in spring and autumn, too hot and the vegetation does not help enough in summer.

Always a good alternative for cyclists

Clear water, great sand, very quiet.

The red rock was the goal.

Beautiful pine forest with a sandy but pedalable bottom. Excellent for hot days being all in the shade

Between the 16th and 17th centuries, three watch and defense towers were built in Arbatax to protect the area from pirate raids. The Tower of San Gemiliano, built in 1587, is one of these. It was originally known as "Taratasciar" in Arabic, which means thirteenth tower. In the 17th century it was called Torre di Zacurru and only in 1767 did it acquire its current name. It is possible to climb two ladders to reach the top of the tower and enjoy the view of the gulf. The walk up to the tower is short and easy.
