The Sulcis Iglesiente, like the rest of beautiful Sardinia, is first of all known for its clear, crystalline sea.
Here you find both sandy coasts, with white sand touched by dreamlike water, and shorelines made of small pebble coves and wild cliffs dropping straight into the sea.
The islets and sea stacks offer priceless views, rising from the water like silent, imposing giants.
Sardinia is an island of rare beauty, with remarkable landscapes and habitats that host many plant species.
On the small island of Vacca, species such as ice plant and stonecrop grow together with the more common sea lily and tazetta narcissus, while the island of Toro hosts other coastal species shaped by wind and salt.
Posidonia oceanica, often mistakenly called seaweed, is actually a marine plant and one of the most important organisms in the Mediterranean ecosystem.
If you are lucky, while sailing by rib boat you may see dolphins very close to you: sometimes they decide to approach the boat.
They are not the only animals that may appear among the waves. Bluefin tuna can be seen along the Sant'Antioco coast, while the many fascinating sea caves can host lobsters. The seabed keeps the precious red treasure of the Mediterranean: coral.
These waters are also home to sea turtles, groupers, swordfish and many varieties of fish, as well as mussels, clams, oysters and the Pinna nobilis, a large endangered bivalve once linked to the production of sea silk.
