Oasi Carloforte

The oasis of faunal protection of Carloforte is located on the island of San Pietro, in Sulcis-Iglesiente, and is a naturalistic area managed to protect wildlife and coastal habitats. Oasis is recognized as an environmental conservation area linked to the protection of insular Mediterranean ecosystems.
The territory is characterized by a mosaic of natural environments that include coastal cliffs, Mediterranean scrub, rocky areas and semi-uncontaminated areas, which create ideal conditions for numerous animal species. Particular importance is covered by avifauna, both aptitude and migration, which uses the island as a strategic point along the Mediterranean routes.
The environment has a natural balance between sea and land, with landscapes shaped by wind and salsedines that have helped to define a resistant and diversified ecosystem. The variety of habitats makes the area particularly relevant for the conservation of biodiversity.
