About the beach
Spiaggia di Cannigione, within Arzachena (the province of Gallura Nord-Est Sardegna, Sardinia), is a sandy beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The beach faces east (86°). It is most sheltered when the Ponente (W) or Libeccio (SW) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Levante (E) or Gregale (NE) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up 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 quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
