Santa Caterina d'Alessandria
Second Sunday of May. On Saturday evening, in Cuglieri, the statue of the Saint is placed on a cart that, the following day, is pulled by oxen to Santa Caterina di Pittinuri, where the faithful welcome it by scattering rose petals along the main street. The statue is accompanied by horsemen, a band, and a small procession of people who, upon arriving in the village, participate in the mass in honor of the Saint in the church of the seaside village. The following day, the statue is brought back to Cuglieri.
Artisanal ice cream parlour and snack bar. It has a terrace overlooking the sea. The only drawback is the somewhat rude owner. Ask him to turn on the light at the artisanal ice cream counter if it's dark and you can't see the names of the flavours you want.
