Sardinia is a vast region that is difficult to simplify when it comes to crossing it.
Mountains, rivers, seas, islands within islands.
Tell me where you come from and I'll tell you where to go.
By sea, by air, (by land)?
Alghero by plane
A mixed Sardinian-Catalan city. If it will be the starting point it is worth a visit and you will be fascinated by the coral, the architecture and the sea. Furthermore, one cannot fail to taste the Alghero paella.
Taking the road from Alghero means crossing municipalities such as Bosa with its colorful houses, Oristano a city that deserves a visit. In Sardinia there is always a road that runs along the sea and one that crosses the island. None disappoint, but the coastal one takes more and more time. So if you don't have it from Oristano, follow the road to Sanluri, Cagliari< /u> and you will arrive at SaMooiDomu.
If you have the time, you travel with a motorhome or you love roads mixed with mountains and seas, you're on the right track. From Oristano you can visit the magnificent coast of Arbus up to Cala domestica, Pan di Zucchero, Porto Flavia. To understand the meaning of travel, you don't need to describe it, you need to do it.
We made 30 let's make 31. Continue your journey. Enjoy Sant´Antioco, its beaches, fish, visit Calasetta and, if you can, take the ferry to Carloforte (famous for the tuna fish tour and beautiful beaches). It can also be reached from Portoscuso, a municipality that deserves a visit. https://www.delcomar.it/tratte-e-orari/ carloforte calasetta
The last stretch of coast from Calasetta includes the obligatory passage to Porto Pino. Stopping at Daniele and Fabio's Bel Cafe' is a ritual. Porto Pino has km of beaches with the famous dunes and other beaches that are not just a side dish. P.S You can visit the caves of Is Zuddas via the Santadi road.https://www.grotteiszuddas.com/index.php/timetable-cave.html
Olbia by plane
Olbia via ship
From Olbia to us a world. Too much to see too much to say. Also too much meat on the fire is not the best. I limit myself to saying: "Messrs. Asinara, Maddalena, Stintino are the porn of travel. Valle della luna for the most alternative, Costa Smeralda for the curious or well-off. Where you fish, fish well.
At this point, all you have to do is choose. If you travel along the western part of the island, see the road from Alghero by plane.
If instead you choose a long descent from the east coast, there will be obligatory stops such as Budoni, the splendid Orosei (it is advisable to book the boat trip in advance), Muravera, Costa Rei, Villasimius.
At this point a visit to Cagliari is mandatory. See Cagliari
Cagliari by plane
Cagliari via ship
Cagliari a city with history, sea and a center full of shops. Restaurants, attractions, make it fascinating. Sincerely, for short visits we suggest you to contact https://apecalessinoquattromori.com/ an easy way and fast to see a city with castles and walls with challenging climbs.
We've almost reached our destination, but first a stop in Pula with its bars and restaurants in the square. There is also the possibility of shopping and groceries, while on Tuesday there is a market with fruit, fish and clothes.
Don't forget visit Nora to schedule. It was the first Phoenician city in Sardinia (8th century BC), a trade hub, as well as a port with an enviable position, in the isthmus of Capo Pula, from which you could set sail with any wind. https://www.fondazionepulacultura.it/prenotazioni/ .
The Roman road. The Roman Road of Chia connected Nora with the ancient disappeared city of Bithia. Two hours of easy walking with a breathtaking sea view! Just an hour's drive from the center of Cagliari, through the SS195, towards Teulada, you turn at the crossroads towards Pinus Village from where it is still possible today to intercept the ancient Roman road towards Chia. Having parked the car in the residential area, it is possible to start the excursion by covering about 5.5 km, with a maximum height difference of only 70 m, so everything is very simple. We recommend trekking shoes, avoiding slippers or sandals, and a supply of at least one liter of water per person.
The signage does not exist therefore we advise you to print this article that we have prepared for you.
The Roman Road was built around the 4th century AD. and specifically connected Nora (near Pula) to Bithia on the road axis between Cagliari and Sulki (Sant'Antioco). The basolato which made up the entire road structure. It belonged to the road system of south-western Sardinia as described in the Antonine Itinerary. Over the centuries there has been a continuous connection between the two territorial entities Santa Margherita di Pula and Domus de Maria. Well before the road between the mountains leading to Teulada was built.
The sea is always on your left for miles. Like the forest of Is Cannoneris which is right above your head and in which you will be immersed for long stretches. The dirt road is also very easy and you can devote yourself to taking some beautiful photographs.
Enveloping Mediterranean scents, with bated breath thinking of walking on a road conceived and built more than 1600 years ago!
A long descent heralds the arrival at the islet of Su Cardulinu, where there are some archaeological findings: it seems that here there was a cemetery area from the Phoenician-Punic (Tophet ), in fact, under the Tower of Chia, which you will see soaring, the remains of ancient Bithia are still evident, a port that for centuries has had a very important strategic, given the location halfway between Cagliari and Sulki, in addition to the proximity (only 145 nautical miles about 250km) to Carthage (today Tunis).
Know that you have to go back to where you came from, in fact the route is not a loop so you have to consider the other 5 kilometers to go back. But that's not a bad guess. On the beach of Su Portu however, there is a kiosk where you can refresh yourself
