THE BEACH

An expanse of pristine white sand beaches
Our beach is one of nature’s wonders: the elements at their most poetic. A stretch of white sand in one of the most beautiful settings in Sardinia between Pula and Capo Spartivento, at the foot of the mountains and sheltered from the rest of the world.
Never exposed to strong winds and never stiflingly hot, it is blessed with a mild, almost tropical microclimate that keeps the water temperature a good two degrees warmer than the rest of the island. Enchanted by its beauty, Forbes magazine named it one of the 25 most beautiful beaches in the world. The beaches along the coastline near Forte Village all have different features, but each one has its own special charm.

Le Forte Village a été choisi par Forbes parmi les meilleures stations familiales, désigné par les experts mondiaux du voyage Virtuoso et élu "première académie de sport au monde".
