Cala Sabina: Ancient Junipers and Caribbean Sand
Cala Sabina: ancient junipers on the sand, reachable also by train. Unpaved car park. Hire a city car or SUV with KS Rent from Olbia in 15 minutes.
Few Sardinian coves are framed by a rustic railway line, yet arriving by road reveals the true spirit of this bay. Ancient junipers twist over pale sand, creating a wild, exotic shelter. KS Rent delivers vehicles to Golfo Aranci in 15 minutes.
The Untamed Shore Where Forest Meets Turquoise Water
What makes this peninsula unique is the ancient, wind-sculpted juniper trees stretching directly into the powder-soft sand. Sheltered from heavy winds, the bay offers an exotic, tranquil atmosphere just a short drive from the Olbia port area.
Navigating the Coast
Departing from Golfo Aranci, drive south for three minutes. Park near the tiny railway halt, then walk the unpaved track for five minutes. From Olbia, the journey is exactly 16 km, taking 18 minutes.
