Santa Lucia: the fishing village
with a tower by the sea

“Santa Lucia is a little patch of Sardinia as it used to be: low fishermen's houses, a Spanish tower on the beach, a pine forest that reaches right down to the sand. No fuss, just sea, shade and the scent of resin.”

What Santa Lucia is like

Santa Lucia is a small seaside village in the municipality of Siniscola, on Sardinia's north-east coast, in the province of Nuoro. It grew up as a fishing village around a coastal tower from the Spanish era, and has kept an authentic, intimate character: low houses, a long beach of pale sand and a pine forest that offers shade just a few steps from the water.

It's the ideal destination if you're looking for a simple, genuine seaside holiday, far from noisy tourism: wide beaches, gently sloping seabeds, peace and quiet and the pine forest for the hottest days. Posada and the Gulf of Orosei are a short distance away. We manage holiday homes in the area.

In Santa Lucia, luxury is simplicity: planting your umbrella under the pines, swimming in shallow water, eating freshly caught fish in a village trattoria. The Sardinia that families choose and come back to every year.

Santa Lucia's beaches

Santa Lucia beach

A long beach of pale sand backed by pine forest, with a gently sloping seabed. Natural shade and facilities, perfect for families.

La Caletta

Just to the north, a long beach with a small harbour, fine sand and facilities. Convenient and lively.

Capo Comino

A short distance away: white sand dunes, a lighthouse and turquoise water. One of the most spectacular spots in the area.

Must-do experiences

  • A day under the pines — natural shade a stone's throw from the sea, ideal with children
  • The Spanish watchtower — the village's symbol, right on the beach
  • Capo Comino and the dunes — an almost desert-like landscape, with the lighthouse
  • The village of Posada — one of “I Borghi più belli d'Italia” (Italy's most beautiful villages), very close by
  • A fish dinner — in the trattorias of the village and of La Caletta
