    La Pelosa - Arriving early before the crowds did

    It is all they say it is.. and everyone knows about it. Reservations are required and a bit of a…read morepain to get, but we secured two spots in the 48 hour ticket release. Getting there early was nice, we were able to spend 50E for two loungers and umbrellas in the second row and there weren't many people for the first few hours. The water is truly unbelievably gorgeous. Clear and shallow with sandy little islands make playing out in the water surreal. We snorkled as well and saw lots of fishies. There are a couple snack shops on the beach, but I sure wish we'd packed a lunch as food was minimal. Often what was on the menu was not available, and gluten-free scarce. Our tickets included a 5 min shower in the locker area and since we arrived early, we were lucky enough to park only 5 mins from the entrance. Really glad we got to experience this famous beach, it didn't disappoint.

    Gorgeous!!! Incredible turquoise clear water that fades into clear royal blue water. It is true…read morethat tons of people come here in August, but still worth going. It's special because the shallow part where you can stand in ankle-knee deep water last for a good 50 meter radius around the beach, so good for kids or also for playing games you'd normally play on the shore. Supposedly parking is rough - 2 euros per hour and that's IF you can find a spot. I heard horror stories of people driving for over an hour looking and even coming as early as 6am?! If you are not opposed to walking, we went towards the end of the day (5pm) and parked for free near the Asinara scuba diving center where we had to ask about dives, and then walked 1-2 km. You can either walk on the road down to Gabbiano beach, Pelosa beach, or la pelosetta beach, or you can walk along the rocks directly on the water. If you try this in the morning, they may charge you even in this lot, but at least you find a spot. After 5pm, no one was there to ask for money. I recommend going to la pelosetta and swimming across to the island with the ancient tower! Just watch out as it's super rocky near the tower island and would be easier with water shoes as its too shallow to swim but tricky to walk.
