About the beach
In the municipality of Aglientu, in the province of Gallura Nord-Est Sardegna (Sardinia), Punta di Li Francesi beach is a rocky stretch of coast on the Sea of Sardinia.
“Punta di Li Francesi beach” is a descriptive name taken from the locality: this beach has no name of its own on OpenStreetMap.
Orientation: north (11°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ostro (S) or Libeccio (SW), keeps it calm; the Tramontane (N) or Gregale (NE) hits it from the sea and can raise waves. The orientation is derived from the coastline and is still being verified.
Rocky seabed: water shoes help, and in calm seas it is good for snorkelling.
Bathing water rated excellent by the EEA (2025 season).
