Summary

Travellers Sardinia takes you to this Italian islands with a difference. Sardinia has an unforgettable coastline, but the interior of the island is equally beautiful. The island's beaches are some of the cleanest and least crowded in Italy. The capital is Cagliari, a good base from which to explore other parts of the island. The resort of Costa Smeralda is a place of luxury and opulence. The inland town of Nuoro is a good station from which to explore the Gennargentu mountain range and enjoy the traditional village festivals. The Sardinian landscape is peppered with constructions from the ancient Nuraghic civilisation. These stone structures are unique to Sardinia and are must-see sites, along with Garibaldi's House and Neptune's Grotto marine cave.
