Spiaggia di Chia & Torre di Chia

Sardinia

Chia strings together Su Giudeu, Sa Colonia and Cala Cipolla — pale sand, junipers, low dunes and shallow turquoise water — with a brackish lagoon behind that holds pink flamingos most of the year. A short climb leads to the Torre di Chia and the ruins of Punic Bithia.
