The beach of the God Maimone ... and the poetry of the waves breaking on the quartz grains ... listen to it in the videos of the post by clicking on the photo... #tuttitaly
We stay in Sardinia, move again to the Sinis peninsula, in the province of Oristano, and more precisely on the beautiful Maimoni beach, considered with Is Arutas and Mari Ermi, the Sinis quartz pearls.
An expanse of two kilometers of very light sand, embellished with quartz grains with various shades of white and pink, is typical of the coast of Cabras, which is 13 kilometers away.
According to the most general theory, this sand is the product of the erosion of the granite of the island of Mal di Ventre, transported downstream when the sea level was lower than the current one.
Several hundreds of meters of turquoise sea and rounded grains of excellent quartz, similar to grains of rice, are transformed into a suggestive escalation of colors, from green to white, passing through the delicate pink. It is a perfect beach for those who love to relax in a dream nature.
The "triad" is considered one of Sardinia's most beautiful and celebrated beaches, consisting of billions of tiny white pebbles.
A curiosity about Maimoni Beach is that its name derives from the Sardinian and Phoenician gods of water and rain.
The Maimone was, therefore, a rain deity who protected from drought. The church of San Salvatore in the 17th century is also linked to his cult.
A harmonious noise you have never heard before is the breaking of the waves on the quartz grains; try to listen to this poem in one of the videos of the post. It is a dream place that you will never be able to forget, and you would like to return as soon as possible.
