About the beach
In the municipality of Palau, in the province of Gallura Nord-Est Sardegna (Sardinia), Spiaggia delle Saline is a beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Orientation: east (82°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ponente (W) or Libeccio (SW), keeps it calm; the Levante (E) or Gregale (NE) hits it from the sea and can raise waves. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
Bathing water rated excellent by the EEA (2025 season).
