Voted the fifth most beautiful beach in Sardinia and the first in the province of Oristano in 2016 by travelers, Su Pallosu is mainly dedicated to cats. Su Pallosu is one of the pearls that dot Capo Mannu, the extreme northern limit of the Sinis peninsula and the marine protected area in which it is protected. It is part of the territory of San Vero Milis, which is about twenty kilometers away, it is known because behind it there is a cat colony that hosts and takes care of cats and organizes guided tours. The cats, whose presence dates back to the early twentieth century, often venture onto the beach: they are the only ones of this species that are not afraid of bathing.

Located just outside the town, it offers a splendid view of Mount Grighine by day, and an equally splendid view of the sky at night, accompanied by an astronomical map through which to interpret the various constellations present in the sky of the summer solstice. It is the twin of another highlight that shows the sky of the vernal equinox https://www.komoot.com/it-it/highlight/6596027

It's worth a visit, the architecture is interesting and the audio guide gives you detailed information about what you see. Entrance to the baths is included in the price (or vice versa). So if you see one you can also see the other as they are just a few minutes drive or probably 5-10 minutes walk away
