The seaside resort of Palau, on the Costa Smeralda, has been popular among tourists and the Italian population alike for many years. Located near the center of this resort are two beaches that are both worth a visit. The first beach, La Sciumara, is characterized by its coarse, cream-colored sand. From the beach, you have a view of the island of La Maddalena. Porto Faro beach, also known as the jewel of Palau, is located a stone's throw from the Porto Faro district. This beach is one of the most characteristic beaches in northern Sardinia. Porto Faro owes its name to the white lighthouse that dominates the end of the beach.
