What to see in Sardinia

A region with ancient origins and unique territorial and linguistic peculiarities, Sardinia is the result of a happy combination of pristine sea and ancient nuraghi (typical cone-shaped stone buildings), old villages and natural paths, cultural events and excellent gastronomy. These characteristics make it one of the most popular holiday destinations for travelers from everywhere. An island that deserves to be known in its entirety, but which probably finds its most desired part on the North coast of the island: this is where the provincial capitals Olbia, Alghero, and Sassari fall and locations such as the Costa Smeralda, the Maddalena archipelago, Asinara, Santa Teresa di Gallura, Stintino with its Pelosa beach, and some of the most spectacular beaches in the Mediterranean Sea stand out.
