The city of Alghero
Alghero is a true corner of paradise throughout the year thanks to its climate and its unique natural make up: the beaches, bays, sheer sea cliffs and wonderful sea beds all contribute to making the
Riviera del Corallo (or "Coral Riviera") one of the most renowned tourist destinations in the Med.
Alghero is a city rich in history, and its monuments today stand as testaments to the importance that this "Catalan" city has had throughout the centuries.
A strategically significant Mediterranean port, it has long been a hub for the trade between Spain and the main coastal towns on Sardinia, and today remains very strongly linked to its past, with roots stretching back into both the Sardinian and Spanish traditions.
It is a city that wins you over thanks to its architectural gems and the majestic bastions that surround it, but also thanks to its natural beauty, including the famous Neptune's caves, the beaches, the cliffs and the attractive seabed.
The historical centre is a constant source of surprises, lined as it is with excellent
shops,
bars,
restaurants and
craft boutiques.
Alghero is also the departure point for discovering some of the other delights of
Sardinia, leaving your boat in safe hands.
