About the beach
In the municipality of San Vero Milis, in the province of Oristano (Sardinia), Sa Mesa Longa is a sandy beach on the Sea of Sardinia.
Orientation: north (355°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ostro (S) or Sirocco (SE), keeps it calm; the Tramontane (N) or Mistral (NW) hits it from the sea and can raise waves. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
Bathing water rated excellent by the EEA (2025 season).
