Villasimius is a coastal town in southeast Sardinia, Italy. The Marine Protected Area Capo
Carbonara has barracuda, seagrass meadows and dive sites. Nearby, the Stagno di Notteri Lagoon
is visited by migrating flamingos in winter. Starting from the beach of Porto Giunco, the
Sentiero delle Cave path leads to a 16th-century watchtower. To the west are the medieval Old Fortress
and the white-sands of the Spiaggia del Riso beach.
