Brandinchi

Brandinchi, also known as Spiaggia di Brandinchi, is a beach on the northeast coast of Sardinia, Italy. It lies near the town of San Teodoro in the province of Olbia-Tempio and is part of the Gulf of Olbia-Tempio coastline. The site is renowned for its pale, fine sand, clear turquoise waters, and a low dune that separates the open sea from a calm lagoon behind the beach.

Geography and environment: The shoreline runs along a shallow, sandy bay where the water remains very shallow close to shore, making it a popular destination for families and casual swimmers. Behind the beach, a pine forest and scrub characterize the coastal landscape. The area is linked with the broader, windswept coastline around Capo Coda Cavallo, a notable nearby landmark.

Name and reception: Locals and visitors often nickname the place “Little Tahiti” for its tropical-looking colors. Access is via road from San Teodoro, with nearby parking typically used during the tourist season. Facilities are modest, and conservation rules may apply to protect dune systems and local wildlife. The beach is a frequent stop for travelers exploring the Costa Smeralda region and the broader Olbia-Tempio area.
