Spiaggia di Scivu, Costa Verde

Sardinia

Scivu is a long strip of golden sand and pounding surf below cliffs and towering vegetated dunes, part of the old mining district's empty coast between Piscinas and Capo Pecora. There are no buildings — just a car park up a dirt road and a path down through the marram.
