The sea
as said, Pistis offers a huge sandy shore among high dunes together with several natural little pools suitable for children' amusement. Its extent guarantees quite and peace even in the summer week end.
S'Enna e S'Arca bay is a paradise for fishermen due to its impassable and secluded reef.
The dunes
characterize all Costa Verde but here in Piscinas, Scivu, Torre dei Corsari and Pistis they show a real saharian habitat.
The Mistral gives incessantly force to the sea to gather lots of sand on the coast and to push them to the hinterland, then it moulds dunes continuously.
How's strange, even if the habitat seems to be hostile to vegetation, here juniper and mastic well growth as well as in spring wallflower, sea lily and yellow corn poppy
