Cea and the Scogli Rossi
Two red porphyry sea stacks rising from the water in front of a long pale-sand beach. The contrast between the red rock and the turquoise sea is typical of the Ogliastra.
Which wind to go with
Sheltered from Ostro, Libeccio, Ponente, Maestrale (mistral): with these winds the sea here is usually calm. Exposed to Grecale, Levante, Scirocco: waves and choppy sea.
