About the beach
Nora beach, within Pula (the province of Cagliari, Sardinia), is a beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
“Nora beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
The beach faces southeast (124°). It is most sheltered when the Mistral (NW) or Ponente (W) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Sirocco (SE) or Levante (E) 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.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
