MARI PINTAU
A perfect name for this wonderful beach which is located a short distance from Villa Flumini: it’s one of those you meet along the road to go to Villasimius: it’s Mari Pintau, “the painted sea”. A sea in which brush strokes of light blue and blue alternate as if they came out of a painter’s palette.
