Is Arutas

isarutasThe beach of Is Arutas, near Cabras, in Sardinia, is a really unique beach: its sand is  composed only of particles of quartz. It has been generated during thousands of years (after last glaciation, 10.000 years ago) from the disaggregation of quartz rocks on the “Mal di Ventre” island, that is in front of Is Arutas.

Collecting and moving away sand from this beach is prohibited. I’m very pleased that this prohibition is in force and respected, because in this way the beach is protected, and a lot of people begins to understand that our Nature has to be preserved for the future generations.
