A wild and beautiful beach just outside of Tortoli. Takes about 15 minutes to walk there from the carpark, but it really is worth it. Note there are no bars or facilities so bring packed lunch! Our Star Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An enchanted landscape: the sound of the surf, the breeze that expands the Mediterranean scents, the shades of the sea, a place of rare beauty that is almost never crowded. Wild and persuasive, isolated but welcoming, between jagged rocks, with pinnacles that look like towers, here is the beach of Su Sirboni. It is a strip of fine white sand, set in a cove hidden among red porphyry, dotted with the bungalows of an old resort, abandoned for decades and now incorporated into the local nature. Its name means 'the wild boar' but it is also known as Cala Francese: it shines on the southern coast of Ogliastra, in the territory of Gairo sant'Elena. You will reach it by exiting the 'old' state road 125 in Cardedu and from the town you will proceed for eight kilometers, first towards the Cardedu marina, then towards Perd'e Pera. On Sirboni it must be sought and desired. From the parking lot on the street you will take a path of approximately 300 meters. The entrance door is an opening created in the thick vegetation. A few steps, then down to the rocks. A 15-minute walk awaits you - inevitable photographic shots included - among schists and strawberry trees, rough and angular rocks, round and smooth boulders. The goal is a 200-meter long arc of light sand, soft and soft like talcum powder, 'unexpected' in a stretch of coast that is almost entirely pebbly. Behind it, small dunes and Mediterranean greenery embellish the bay. The seabed is shallow for tens of meters, the water is crystal clear and bright blue and turquoise in color, ideal for snorkeling and underwater fishing. A pearl as bright as it is wild, which would probably be the most beautiful beach of any other Italian region, yet it is little known. You will find little crowding even in high season, perhaps because the relative effort of the itinerary getting there is a little daunting. No bathing establishments, no sun lounger rentals, no bars, just the 'skeleton' of the abandoned resort. Then bring everything you need to drink, eat and explore, including a mask, fins and rock shoes. And it is advisable to stay there until sunset, when the sunlight paints the surrounding rocks a thousand shades of red, a magic in the magic that will leave you with an even more special memory and the desire to return as soon as possible. Together with su Sirboni, the marina of Gairo offers another spectacle, different but equally suggestive, Coccorrocci: four kilometers of porphyritic pebbles, round, smooth and shiny, shaped by time. Sea snails live there, which give their name to the beach, the largest on the island among those entirely made of pebbles. The context is suggestive: the dark pebbles combine with the blue hues of the sea, while red porphyry rocks loom around and junipers frame the green and inebriate the beach with scents. The place is ideal for trekking: twenty minutes walk from the beach you will find the natural pools fed by the source on Accu 'and axina In the marina there is also the Lispedda beach, called' the little beach ', divided in two by rocks and gravel and pebbles. From the sea, the territory of Gairo reaches as far as Gennargentu. Other landscapes not to be missed are the Taquisara cave, in Mount Ferru, and the imposing Perda 'e Liana, the peak of the Ogliastra heels (1300 meters), a' protected 'natural monument, populated by mouflons and flown over by the bearded vulture.
