The 10 Best Nature & Wildlife Areas in Sardinia, Italy

September 29, 2021 Tynisha Seiler

The second-largest island in Mediterranean after Sicily, Sardinia serves up a lovely blend of sea, sand and history. Thousands of nuraghe (stone buildings) dot the landscape, proof that people have been enjoying the lovely climate here for millennia. From posh Costa Smerelda in the north to medieval Alghero in the northwest to the lively capital of Cagliari in the south, and with many picturesque towns and unspoiled sandy beaches in between, Sardinia’s got a little something for everyone.

Totally in love with this place. So happy we got to see the horses. Guide Roberto was excellent. Great knowledge. Love how they care about the environment and work to protect nature and the wild horses. Would go back next time I visit Sardinia. Beautiful wild place.

L'Area Naturale Marina Protetta Tavolara - Punta Coda Cavallo

Reviewed By janbmnorge - Oslo, Norway

in order to get there, you would need to jump on the boat that sail from Porto San Paolo marina.. tickets are available in the ticket purchase section on the right.. once you're there, you may enjoy a good food in the restaurant, sardinian style of course or just go for hiking, in case you're freediver/snorkeler I'd recommend to walk across the island and straight under the mountain there is a beach, almost empty, clean water and pretty deep too. a lot of sealife there.

The site itself was really nice, both mini movies are beautifully done and very educational but the best part were the three young guys that worked there during our visit. All of them were very helpfull, and really tried to make us feel like at home. The train ride is also very nice
