If you happen to be vacationing in the southern region of Sardinia, there are certainly more stunning coves to be found. However, when it comes to the island of Pietro, it undoubtedly reigns as the top destination. Although it lacks any traditional beaches or bars, it is conveniently accessible and maintains a serene ambiance.
