Batteria Punta Rossa

Batteria Punta Rossa is a historic coastal defense battery perched on the rugged red-rock cliffs of northeastern Sardinia, offering sweeping views over the Tyrrhenian Sea. The combination of crumbling military fortifications and raw, windswept coastline gives it an atmosphere unlike anything else in the area. You can reach it on foot via hiking trails that wind through the macchia mediterranea scrubland — worth every step for the panorama alone.
