Beaches
Pristine beaches at your doorstep
Chia Beach
The crown jewel of southern Sardinia - a vast stretch of fine golden sand lapped by shallow turquoise water. Just 400 metres from Villetta Daisy, it's perfect for families and swimmers alike.
Su Giudeu Beach
A wilder, more secluded beach backed by fragrant Mediterranean scrub. Popular with kitesurfers and those seeking a quieter alternative to the main beach.
Tuerredda Beach
Often called one of the most beautiful beaches in all of Italy - a small crystalline bay with vivid turquoise water, reachable by a short walk or boat.
Activities
Things to do in Chia
Flamingo watching
The lagoons flanking the Chia road are home to hundreds of pink flamingos - an unforgettable sight at sunset.
Chia Laguna Resort
The resort complex nearby offers a spa, gym, kids' club, and beach facilities open to day visitors.
Torre di Chia
The ancient Phoenician-Spanish tower perched on the headland offers sweeping views over the coastline and lagoon.
Watersports
Kite surfing, paddleboarding, snorkelling, and boat tours are all available from the beach during summer season.
Dining
Where to eat
Chia's restaurant scene is small but excellent. Fresh seafood is the star - grilled sea bass, pasta with sea urchin, and lobster linguine are local staples. The village also has a market and pharmacy for daily essentials. For a wider selection, the town of Teulada is just 15 minutes away.
