Torre Salinas, also known as Torre delle Saline, stands out from the other coastal towers of Sardinia due to its square shape. It stands on the promontory that separates Torre Salinas beach from Colostrai beach. It is not possible to enter the tower, but the view from the path is incredible and makes the climb absolutely rewarding.

Panoramic point in the Baccu Arrodas Forestry Yard, easily accessible by a wide dirt road. Do not underestimate the sometimes severe slopes. From here it is possible to admire the towns of San Vito, Villaputzu and a part of Muravera.

Beautiful beach that takes its name from the tower that dominates it, easily reachable with a short hike. Warm and shallow turquoise water full of fish. A nice ride alongside this marvel.

The short ascent is also worthwhile for geocachers ;-)

Go up the driveway to the left (where it says 'dead end'). Below the tower there is a signpost 'Torre'. There you climb up a few meters to the right. Can only be mastered with good shoes. Unfortunately, the tower cannot be entered. The door is locked with a heavy iron chain. But 10 m further there is a flat spot on the rock that also offers a good view.
