Mari Ermi is a wild beach in the west of Sardinia, nestled among low vegetation and high dunes bordering the sea.
The entire coastline is covered with unusual white grained stones that shimmer in different colors depending on the time of day. The main component of the stones is quartz, which has been polished over millennia by the environment and acquired smooth edges. In gusty winds, salt dunes appear to form from granular particles. It’s hard to walk on such a surface – the leg sinks. The beach belongs to the protected area – it is forbidden to take out quartz grains.
The water is crystal clear, transparent, green, and blue; the sea is shallow, the coastline is wide and long. The bottom is shallow; the depth increases gradually. Marie-Hermey is ideal for families with a child. It is a popular tourist destination during the summer months of the year. There is a spacious parking lot near the beach, a campground. It is calm here at any time of the day.
There are usually quite a few people on the Mari Ermi from September to July.
