Beach overall scores
Dottore Beach (Sassari) is located outside the Porto Istana settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Sardinia island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Dottore Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"Although parking can be a challenge and the walk to the beach is a bit rugged, the reward is well worth it. This Sardinian beach boasts unparalleled beauty with its pristine white sand, crystal clear waters, and a tropical ambiance that transports you to the Caribbean. The view is absolutely breathtaking and definitely worth the effort."
Aiden Kessler.
"The shoreline is undoubtedly stunning, but it's swarming with people. By 9 am, there was a swarm of motorboats and yachts crowding the waters. It was a challenge to locate a vacant spot on the sand. The hike to reach this location wasn't as simple as the reviews made it out to be. While I'm a fan of secluded beaches, this one didn't seem worth the trouble to me."
