Photos of Sardinia

A wild Mediterranean land

A journey on the waves of an emerald sea, between large and small coves of white sand. This is Sardinia, an island that surprises visitors with its natural contrasts, its lights and the colors of a country with ancient traditions, in a deserted and unspoiled natural setting. Located in the heart of the Mediterranean, Sardinia is a predominantly mountainous region, with no very high peaks, offering visitors a pure and unique environment, both harsh and gentle. In fact, man’s presence is rare in this territory, where vast areas are left untouched and wild nature reclaims its rights: lush, thousand-year-old forests, desert or marshy areas alternate, welcoming a specific fauna: deer, wild horses, large birds of prey.

The sea reigns supreme, playing out its shimmering colors as it slips into the small, jagged coves along the coast and onto the most popular beaches. Porto Cervo, the pearl of the Costa Smeralda, is a perfect example of the marriage between history, culture and ancestral traditions and a lively, colorful nightlife. Porto Rotondo is also a popular destination. Overlooking the vast Gulf of Cugnana, it is home to small squares and opulent houses surrounded by magnificent gardens. Among the wonders Sardinia has to offer visitors are several nuragic complexes scattered throughout the territory, monuments unique in the world and bearing witness to the existence (between the 15th and 6th centuries BC) of an ancient civilization, some of which is still unknown.
