Sardegna

Population: 1.661.429
Surface (Kmq): 24090
Density (Inhabitants/Kmq.): 69
Main city: Cagliari (CA)
Other towns: Nuoro (NU); Oristano (OR); Sassari (SS).

Sardegna (Sardinia) offers a wealth of unspoilt marine environment, crystal clear waters, beautiful beaches and cliffs. From Capo Caccia, north of Alghero and the bright Capo Spartivento, near Chia, to the fantastic Cala Domestica which almost like a fjord makes its way into the heart of the south eastern coast, the Golfo di Orosei, with amazing pink cliffs. Here is the extremely popular Costa Smeralda, playground for the rich and famous. Even the most primitive part of Sardegna’s interior is unfailingly enticing, with its nuraghi, conical shaped stone towers; its domus de janas, small prehistoric tombs dug into the rock; or its menhirs, groups of which can also be found in small local museums. Sardegna intrigues also for its peculiar geological formation - extensive areas dominated by limestone, like Supramonte, alternate with granite cliffs, modelled by the wind over the millennia.
