About
The Lakes of Sardinia are, for the most part, artificial lakes. The only natural lake on the island is Lake Baratz, located in the Nurra of Sassari. A special case is represented by some temporary lakes of a seasonal nature, very small in size and fed by rainwater, which is called paùli. An example is the two Paùli Maiori of the Giara di Tuili.
The most important lakes in Sardinia are Lake Omodeo, formed by damming the Tirso River, Lake Coghinas, on the river of the same name, and the lakes of high and low Flumendosa.
