Capoterra offers a peaceful and strategic base for a Sardinian beach holiday. While it has its own local shoreline, the town is primarily a quiet residential area, perfect for travelers seeking relaxation away from the main tourist hubs. Its real advantage is its location, providing easy car access to the legendary beaches of southern Sardinia, making it an ideal starting point for exploration.
For ultimate convenience, La Maddalena Spiaggia serves as Capoterra's own town beach. However, a short drive unlocks some of the Mediterranean's most celebrated coastlines. Discover the Caribbean-like cove of Tuerredda Beach or the vast golden dunes of Su Giudeu. For a more lively atmosphere with endless services, the vibrant city beach of Cagliari, Poetto, is also within easy reach.
