The village of Seulo in Sardinia is in the middle of the region’s hills and mountains. It’s not by the cool and famous beaches of the island. On the contrary, it’s surrounded by pine trees, nature, and fresh, blue water rivers. Still, the salty air of the Mediterranean arrives here, in the inland. And this mix of fresh air and gorgeous nature might...

Guarding is the mission of the islanders who inhabit Sardinia, whether it's an ancient vineyard, the black sheep of Arbus, or eccentric glasses crafted by a designer from Cagliari. There's plenty to discover here beyond the beautiful sea. “Natural garden,” is how Gian Piero Frau refers to his three-hectare field in Siddi, a town of just over 600 in...

Given that it's the second-largest island in the Mediterranean, it's easy to assume that seafood stands front and center in the gastronomic culture.  But malaria arrived on Sardinia during the Carthage invasion of 215 BC and was...

Near the north-eastern tip of Sardinia, near the Bocche di Bonifacio, an archipelago of 62 islands and islets seems to have been created especially to surprise those who do not like to settle. The jagged coastline hides elegant views, almost unexplored coves and white sandy beaches. The largest and only inhabited island is La Maddalena, which gives...

Alghero is one of the most characteristic beauties of Sardinia. The town’s close ties to Spain, Catalunya in particular, go back to the 14th Century when the House of Aragon’s domination began. The Municipality’s coat of arms is still inspired by that of Catalonia and you will hear the language spoken by more than 20% of the locals. For this reason...

The island of Sardinia is one of my favorite regions of Italy. Sardinia is well known for its beautiful, pristine beaches and clean, clear sea and unlike in many parts of Italy, the majority of the beaches are free. Beaches range from sandy beaches with calm waters to rocky beaches with strong surf and even beaches accessed only by hiking or by boa...
