Lu Impostu
BOOK THE BEACH
It can be reached by driving north along State Road 125 towards San Teodoro-Olbia, then turning right towards Puntaldia at the junction at the Lu Fraili locality.
Separated from Brandinchi beach only by a slender wooded promontory and very similar to it, it shares the intensity of the colors of the crystal-clear waters, the ultra-white sands and the vegetation of the backshore in its natural state (even mimosa plants are found there). Access to the beach is preceded by a large parking lot, and having traveled down a short slope, one must cross a small ford of the pond behind.
Curiosities
. Also known as port Brandinchi, the beach of Lu Impostu at least until the whole of the 18th century was the scene of hidden trade with the hinterland; the very toponym translated from the Gallura dialect means “place where things are piled up.”
