Frequently Asked Questions
We’re set just behind the beach — private access to a quiet, un-equipped sandy shoreline is a short walk from any accommodation. Rocky sunbathing spots are at hand.

Being on the southern coast, you’re also a short drive or cycle from numerous other beaches, hidden bays, and sea caves.
The campsite is set within 10 acres of nature, covered with fragrant Mediterranean vegetation. Between you and the sea, there is nothing. You’ll fall asleep, lulled only by the sound of waves gently lapping at the shore… The peace and security within the campsite, which is mainly frequented by families, are ensured by the campsite regulations, the noise rules, and the surveillance and security services.
Most mobile homes and studios offer beautiful views of Cala Sapone and the entire campsite. Several mobile homes and pitches also enjoy wonderful sea views, and those facing west offer spectacular, romantic sunsets.

Of course, you can enjoy the company of your furry friend during your vacation! You can bring up to two dogs per reservation—just let reception know in advance. We charge €15 cleaning costs per dog, per stay (only for accommodations). Please remember to always keep them on a leash, for the comfort and tranquillity of all Guestinis at Camping Tonnara. To maintain a peaceful atmosphere for everyone, dogs must not be left alone. They’re welcome at the Beach Bar, pizzeria, supermarket, and on the beach in the early morning and late evening, but not at the pool.
Sant'Antioco
Also known as ‘Little Sardinia’, Isola di Sant’Antioco. Sant’Antioco is a peninsula on the Southwestern coast of Sardinia. The peninsula is connected to the mainland by a bridge. Crystal clear seawater, the most pristine beaches and ruins dating back to pre-Roman times. This makes Sant’Antioco a hidden gem, undiscovered by mass tourism.
Sant’Antioco is located at the far South-West of Sardinia. This is where Basecamping Tonnara can be found, with direct access to the sea and facing the wonderful Cala Sapone inlet. A beautiful sandy beach with beautiful rock formations and natural pools.
