About the beach
Spiaggia di Foxi, within Quartu Sant'Elena (the province of Cagliari, Sardinia), is a sandy beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The beach faces southwest (206°). It is most sheltered when the Gregale (NE) or Tramontane (N) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Libeccio (SW) or Ostro (S) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Sandy bottom: easy entry into the water, just take care when the sea is rough.
Bathing water quality: good (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
