Practical advice

In July and August, set off early for the best-known beaches, such as Palombaggia, Santa Giulia and Rondinara. For an easy, spontaneous swim, choose Tarco, Favone, Canella or Fautea depending on the weather, the wind and what you feel like that day. From the villa, Tarco is the easiest place to swim without a car. Favone and Canella offer a change of scenery. For a full day out in the south, choose Palombaggia or Santa Giulia and check parking and wind conditions before you go. The distances on this page are approximate. Journey times depend on summer traffic.
