Sardinija
Sardinia (Italian Sardegna [sarˈdeɲɲa], with an area of about 24,000 km2 after Sicily, is the second largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and on the territory of Italy. It lies west of the Apennine Peninsula and a little south of French Corsica. It is about 350 km from Liguria in the north, from Africa in the south is approximately 250 km.
Politically, Sardinia is one of the five autonomous regions of Italy with the official name Regione Autonoma della Sardegna/Regione Autònoma de Sardigna. As such, it has some internal autonomy. It is divided into four provinces and the capital Cagliari, which is also the largest on the island. Sardinians speak native Sardinian and minority languages: Sassanian, Corsican Gallurian, Algarese Catalan and Ligurian Tabarkino. The languages are recognized by regional legislation and have the same status as Italian.
Due to the diversity of ecosystems, which include mountains, forests, plains, large uninhabited areas, rivers, rocky coasts and long sandy beaches, Sardinia is a kind of micro-continent with an extremely long history.
Steep cliffs, endless beaches and idyllic bays, historical sites, wine and Sardinian specialties - holidays in Sardinia are pure sweet life. Here you can experience pure dolce vita on your next beach vacation in Italy.
Discover Italy's dream island while hiking or biking, relaxing on the beach or shopping in picturesque towns and villages!
With approximately 24,000 square kilometers, Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean. Its shape is almost twice as long (270 kilometers) as it is wide (145 kilometers). The Greeks called them Sandalyon because of their resemblance to the sandal print. And almost exactly in the middle of the Mediterranean. The Italian coast is 202 kilometers away, the African coast (Tunisia) only 180 kilometers away. Its immediate neighbor to the north is the French island of Corsica.
The Sardinians themselves love their island with all their hearts, they are quite shy, but still hospitable. And the food is as varied and magnificent as the island scenery. Classic Italian cuisine with pasta, pizza, etc. is represented everywhere, but Sardinian specialties are always worth discovering. Cheese dumplings with honey (Seadas), small pasta with tomato sauce, saffron and salsiccia (Malloreddus alla Campidanese), Sardinian pecorino cheese, wine and thin breads (Pane Carasau) are a real treat for the taste buds.
