The island of Sardinia, in the centre of the western Mediterranean sea. The territory is mainly mountainous, and there are four large gulfs along the coastline: the Gulf of Cagliari, Oristano, Orosei and Asinara. The climate is mild, not too cold in the winter time and fairly hot in the summer.
Sardinia's environment is particular, and its landscape offers different and varied views; mountains and massifs rise in the inner part, along with plateaux and tablelands, whereas the Campidano plain stretches in the south.
The coasts are rich in bays and caves, characterised by extraordinary rocky formations, that open up in front of the visitors' eyes: don't miss the Bue Marino and the Neptune Caves. Don't forget the natural parks (Gennargentu, Sette Fratelli, and Monte Arcosu are the most important ones), and the Tavolara Marine Preserve.
