Between the Sea, Hills and Red Rocks
The cycling route from Trinità to Li Canneddi (Costa Paradiso) passes through a hilly landscape between the sea, hills and red rocks. For cycling travelers, the landscape therefore combines the sea, terrain and striking rock colors. A coastal hike leads from Isola Rossa to Costa Paradiso along a clearly visible path through juniper trees and granite formations. This allows you to plan different impressions of the coast during your stay: a route by bicycle and a path that connects juniper and granite.
Beaches and Paths by the Water
Li Cossi can be reached on foot or by sea via a panoramic path approximately 500 meters long. The Spiaggia di Li Cossi beach and Li Cossi beach are located in the immediate vicinity of Costa Paradiso. Cala Sarraina beach is also nearby. Spiaggia di Cala Canneddi beach is located in the vicinity of Costa Paradiso. When planning your day, keep the different spatial relationships in mind rather than grouping all the beaches under a single location description.
The rocky areas of Li Cossi are suitable for snorkeling and diving. Li Baietti can be reached via two stairways leading down into a cove.
Churches, Castle and Traces of Coastal Life
The Church of Santa Maria is located in the vicinity of Costa Paradiso. The Church of San Biaxiu is also nearby. In the wider regional area are Castelsardo Castle and the Museo dell'Intreccio Mediterraneo museum. Porto Leccio has an ancient stazzo, indicating that the area near the sea was inhabited.
Plan Your Stay According to Your Interests
When planning, you can first distinguish between immediate coastal impressions and destinations in the wider region. You might focus on the colors of the sea and the natural pools, a cycling route between the sea and red rocks, the coastal hike through juniper and granite, or the churches, castle and museum in the wider region. The nearby beaches, Li Cossi with its panoramic path, and the rocky areas for snorkeling and diving also offer different focal points for your plans. This allows you to choose the direction of your trip based on the landscapes and experiences you would like to get to know more closely on site.
