style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The island of Asinara is located at the northwestern tip of Sardinia, between Punta Colondri to the south (40\u00b059&#8242; N), Punta dello Scorno to the north (41\u00b007&#8242; N), Punta Salippi to the west (4\u00b015&#8242; E) and Punta Sabina to the east (4\u00b006&#8242; E).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has an area of about 52 square kilometers and a straight-line length of about 17.5 kilometers. The width varies from 290 m in Cala di Scombro to 7 km in the northernmost part of the island, from Punta Grabara to Punta Sabina. The coastal perimeter is about 110 km.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The island is characterized by large areas of rock outcrops, with vegetation cover mostly represented by Mediterranean scrub; only the Elighe Mannu area in the northern part of the island is the most extensive forest formation, represented by holm oak forest (<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quercus ilex<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), also affected in the past by reforestation works.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The island consists of four small mountain ranges connected by isthmuses.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The northern one is the largest, both in extent and altitude, and includes the highest relief of Punta della Scomunica (408 m asl), which connects to the south with the Campu Perdu plain.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">South of this plateau outcrops the shale complex of Mount Ruda (215 m asl), which occupies a hilly area of about 2 square kilometers, bounded by the underlying isthmus of Punta Marcutza (195 msm).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the south-central part of the island, south of the area called Stretti, is another group of reliefs, including those of Punta Tumbarino (241 msm), Punta Romasino (215 msm) and Guardia del Turco (128 msm). The ridge line of this relief is oriented in a NO-SE direction, similar to the reliefs of Capo Falcone and Monte Forte in the Nurra. This sector is bounded by the two rias of Cala Scombro di Dentro and Scombro di Fuori and is the narrowest point on the island.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The southern core consists mainly of the granitic intrusion of Punta Maestra Fornelli (265 msm) and gray shales identical to those on the Stintino Peninsula. The connection between this area and Isola Piana is broken by the Fornelli Strait whose bathymetries do not exceed 5 meters.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Different erosive action is evident along the coasts, reflecting the exposures of its lithotypes: in fact, the west coast is steep and rocky, almost totally inaccessible from the sea due to cliffs that reach 200 meters in places. Here, the coastline, which is affected by the strong action of sea currents and wave motion of quadrant IV winds, is characterized by the absence of sandy deposits and thrashing furrows that deepen for a few meters.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the contrary, the east coast is generally low and rocky, with beaches located mainly in Fornelli, Sant&#8217;Andrea, La Reale, Trabuccato, Punta Sabina, and Cala Arena, with the presence in the same areas of backdune ponds.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7c9b2e7 elementor-section-content-top elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7c9b2e7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b71ad03\" data-id=\"b71ad03\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-8078c89 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8078c89\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-b40b8d0\" data-id=\"b40b8d0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f3f97b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7f3f97b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Climate<\/h1>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-0a55d0c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0a55d0c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-de8d8d5\" data-id=\"de8d8d5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-22cb65e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"22cb65e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rainfall is characterized by values among the lowest in all of Sardinia, evidently influenced by the insularity situation, and rarely reaches the average annual value of 500 mm of rain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of temperature, the coldest month is February with average values of about 10 \u00b0C, while the hottest month is August with an average of 23 \u00b0C.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most frequently blowing winds are the westerly, present for about 35 percent of the days, and the mistral, for about 13 percent: together these northwest winds are present for about half of the days of the year.
