Cardedu proves to be one of the most active and liveliest towns in Ogliastra because it is trying every year to increase tourism more than any other: along its shore many holiday villages have been built, among which the most known are Perdepera and Corte Bianca. From a geographic point of view, Cardedu stands in a territory that expands around Mount Ferru (875 metres above sea level), teeming with woods where cork-oars, holm-oaks and ancient junipers grow; the Mediterranean scrub begins to appear next to the shore, while by the beaches gramineae reign supreme.

The coast is very particular: tiny inlets alternate with stretches of sand, reefs follow grey stones, thus shaping a varied seascape. Foddini is a unique beach because of the presence of a small lake, Museddu and Perdepera still have a sandy seashore; instead, the wide  Coccorocci consist of porphyritic pebbles. Near Coccoroci a very well equipped camping site has been built, attended particularly during summer periods. Moreover Cardedu sea is usually chosen by many surfers because the sirocco wind blows here around 15 knots.

Local handicraft as baskets, demijohns and mats made from wood or rattan are widespread in the surroundings but they represent more a hobby than a tradition. The excellent wines Cannonau and Perda Rubia are produced here, by strong local grapes.
