Southern Sardinia

It has taken much longer for visitors to discover the incredibly wild, beautiful and unspoilt region of Southern Sardinia. It's a hidden gem, teeming with dramatic mountain ranges, interesting wildlife and prehistoric sites.

This region’s real lures are its pristine and uncrowded beaches that punctuate most of the southern coastline. Yet there is a good deal else to draw you here: the dramatic sweep of the inland Sulcis mountains, the character filled town of Pula with its neat piazza and fine restaurants; and the capital itself which throbs with typical Sardinian energy.

To the east of Cagliari, the coastline is one of the most alluring on the island and is sprinkled with residential resorts such as Solanas, Porto Sa Ruxi and Villasimius.
