5 Must-see Attractions In Sardinia, Italy

When planning to visit the beautiful Italian island of Sardinia

, you definitely shouldn't miss out on any of these magnificent attractions.

The island is recognised as the second biggest in the Mediterranean Sea and is the boundary separating Spain and Italy. It also happens to be one of the most popular tourist destinations in the whole of Italy. Whether you're planning a quiet, romantic getaway cocooned in a quaint villa in Sardinia, or a fun-filled weekend with family or friends, the island offers you a perfect escape from bustling cities and highly industrialised regions that can mar the beauty of some Italian regions.

Aside from its pristine waters and powdery beaches, the island has a lot more to offer to its visitors, and you definitely wont want to stay cooped up in your hotel or villa in Sardinia no matter how lovely it may be! Here are the top 5 tourist hotspots that you will want to include in your itinerary:

Villasimius

Villasimius is a small fishing village that has become a famous tourist attraction over recent years. A visit here will reward you with the stunning combination of shimmering sea, scattered islets and magnificent mountains. While Villasimius is a small town, it offers tourists a wide array of entertainment options, being home to some popular hotels, bars, shops and restaurants. Depending on where your villa in Sardinia is situated, this village is easily accessible by road. Villasimius is about 80 minutes car drive from the town of Cagliari. The journey itself presents a memorable experience. It is generally best to visit during the summer season, although winter also lures its fair share of tourists.

The Beaches

If you love the sea, the sand and the sun, the island certainly delivers the finest of all these. It is a veritable tropical paradise right in the heart of Europe, with its clean, sparkling waters and golden sands.

La Maddalena

La Maddalena is the largest of the seven islands around Sardinia, well known for its crystal clear waters and pink sand. For avid divers, this island is the best place to explore the stunning seabed. If shopping is your thing, this island showcases lovely shops where you can buy wonderful souvenir items. And dont forget to feast on succulent seafood most restaurants in the area offer - delicious in the extreme!

Bosa

Bosa is a small yet exceptionally charming town set on the riverside. Known as one of the ancient towns of the island, Bosa is renowned for its colourful carnival celebrations that usually take place in February. Be sure to visit Bosa Marina, which is famed for its long stretch of beach, fringed with hotels and restaurants.

Santa Teresa Gallura

To cap off your stay in your villa in Sardinia, make a trip to Santa Teresa Gallura. This is, by far, the most important tourist hotspot located in the northern area of the island. It is celebrated for its beautiful beaches, which showcase a string of bars and restaurants.
