The natural jewel of Sant’Anna Arresi, although there is no shortage of other beauties in its territory, remains the beach of Portopino. One of the most beautiful beaches in Sardinia, which takes its name from the natural Aleppo pine forest that stretches along the entire length of the beach and also covers the whole of the promontory leading to the ‘Candiani’ area as far as Portopinetto.The beach consists of fine, compact sand, the water is clear and transparent; the seabed slopes gently and makes the beach safe especially for children. Although there is only one beach, it has become common to speak of first and second beaches.”In fact, towards the middle of the beach, a jetty was built, and usually, in spring a channel was opened connecting the sea with the pond behind the beach to allow the fry to enter the pond and grow into delicious sea bream or sea bass.The “second beach” includes the sand dunes that until a few years ago were part of the military zone of Capo Teulada and are now accessible, albeit with the necessary controls by the forest rangers.
