What to visit on your holiday in Sardinia.
Alghero
Located on the northwest coast, Alghero still shows traces of its Catalan past. The town boasts a charming Gothic-style historic centre that includes the Cathedral of St. Mary, Guillot Palace and the 14th-century Church of St. Francis, the Coral Museum and a long natural inlet overlooking the emerald sea. The caves of Neptune are the most important in Sardinia: they are located in Alghero, extend for about 6 km and have been excavated over millions of years by fresh water. They can be reached by ferry or via a staircase of about 600 steps, which offers spectacular views of the sea and coastline.

Consisting of seven major islands, the Maddalena archipelago is a UNESCO World Heritage Site (declared in 1994) of Sardinia.
