About the beach
Isola Piana beach, within Olbia (the province of Gallura Nord-Est Sardegna, Sardinia), is a sandy beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
“Isola Piana beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
The beach faces northeast (28°). It is most sheltered when the Libeccio (SW) or Ostro (S) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Gregale (NE) or Tramontane (N) 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.
