The port of Alghero is the main landing place on the west coast of Sardinia and has a mooring capacity of approximately 2500 berths. It is incredible how the port and the city, Alghero, come together, creating a spectacular view, giving the possibility to moor at the foot of the ancient city walls. 

The history of Alghero, and its harbour, dates back to the early 12th century when the Doria family decided to fortify the city. In 1353 the city became part of the Crown of Aragon and had remained under the Catalan-Aragonese and then Spanish domination for four centuries.
