Summer Holiday in Sardinia

When you think of Sardinia, you inevitably think of gorgeous beaches with crystal clear waters. In fact, expansive, beautiful sandy beaches with names like 'Little Tahiti' are regularly voted into the world's top ten lists. Surrounded by beautiful little bays, the breathtaking nature of the Mediterranean Sea can be enjoyed to the fullest. If you are looking for a change from relaxing by the sea, you can explore the island by car or rent a bike and just go for a ride. Explorers can walk in historical footsteps and look at relics of the Bronze Age, while families especially appreciate the child-friendly activities on offer in the vacation region. Animation and pools with water slides make children's eyes sparkle, while adults experience true culinary delights while feasting on delicious food.
