I visited Dog Beach on a Saturday in mid-July, and as I write this, the beach is almost empty, although there were about twenty bathers present this morning. The beach has deposits of posidonia, which are indicators of a clean sea and should not be removed for the pleasure of bathers; the sea will naturally take care of it. The beach and the pebble coves hidden among the rocks are perfect for those seeking silence and tranquility, even if you don't have a dog. However, there is a lack of basic amenities such as bins for unsorted waste or a water fountain for both four-legged and two-legged visitors. This does not justify leaving dog excrement or cigarette butts scattered around (which is always bad). It would be simple enough to bring a garbage bag and dispose of waste properly and legally. There is also a convenient free dirt parking lot just a few meters from the beach. In summary, if you're looking for DJ sets, entertainment, aperitifs, fashionable people, etc., you should look elsewhere and cultivate your hashtags in a different location.
Stunning beach. You can rent paddleboards and kayaks at an affordable rate to explore the nearby beaches, which is definitely worth it.
We explored the protected marine natural area with the help of INSULA360 (find them on IG), who guided us on an exclusive and detailed excursion using their dinghy: • Tavolara Island, where we stopped for about an hour to have breakfast and swim in a stunning cove; • Molara Island, where we swam in its natural pools but couldn't disembark; • Turtle Rock, where we enjoyed swimming and diving; • Beach of the Cows, concluding at Cala Suaraccia, the starting point of our excursion.
