The Territory
Ogliastra is a recent discovery in tourism. The great beauty of the coast, and of its mountainous inland, the enchanting beaches and coves of the Gulf of Orosei, the harsh and wild landscape of the Supramonte and the Gennargentu, will give you thousands of ideas for a different holiday.
Arbatax, with its clean water, blue sky, large variety of beaches and rocks, fully satisfies your need for a typical seaside holiday, and it is also an ideal place to start off for short or medium length excursions to the inland or by sea.
In this part of Sardinia, the word holiday means not only enjoying our seaside but, according to the season, it also means living your passions in the pure nature of the Ogliastra area.
Flora and fauna, trekking, mountain biking, free climbing and motorcycle racing are passions that you can try out here almost all year round.
If you are passionate or just curious about getting to know the Sardinian culture that has remained strongly intact, this area gives you the possibility to experience the original folklore, discover nuragic archaeology, and taste the genuine typical cuisine of the region.

La Bay of Porto Frailis, surveilled by a 13th Saracen tower and protected from most of the winds, is at at a few minutes walking distance, without having to cross roads full of traffic.
The middle part, with very fine sand and shallow water is ideal for children, while the cliffs on the two sides invite you to wear diving mask and flippers and discover what is hidden under water. Since 2015, it has been certified as a “Blue Flag” beach (FEE).
