Spiaggia dello Strangolato is located in the north of Isola Maddalena, on the headlands of Punta Abbatoggia. It is one of the northernmost beaches of Sardinia, known for its picturesque views and unique shape, allowing access to the sea from both sides of the beach. The beach features fine pinkish sand and shallow waters, making it suitable for families with children. Snorkeling is a popular activity here, with opportunities to spot marine life such as octopuses and starfish. Visitors can admire the surrounding scenery, including views of nearby islands like Corsica, Santa Maria, and Spargi.
The beach offers a tranquil atmosphere, with options for walking around the headlands and exploring nearby coves. It is somewhat remote, requiring a trip on a bumpy dirt road, which can be dusty in summer and bumpy after rainfall. Parking near the beach costs a few Euros.
Lo Strangolato, a restaurant located right on the beach, offers a delightful culinary experience with a focus on seafood and local cuisine. It provides a cozy ambiance, both indoors and outdoors, with an excellent selection of dishes and drinks.
