Sources for Weather forecasts:
Approach is either from the east, when the large breakwater protecting the harbour will be visible some distance off, or from the west, when a yacht has the option of sailing north round Asinara island or through the narrow channel between island of Piana and the mainland. Depths in the channel here are as little as 5 metres, so care is needed.
