Summary
Sardinia is a place that flies under the radar outside of Europe where her beaches and natural wonders are well-loved and admired. Today we reveal what's so special about Italy's second-biggest island and why you should add a stop there on your Italy itinerary.
We enlisted the help of Cagliari local Claudia Tavani to take us through the highlights of the island she calls home. From the capital Cagliari to the pink sand beaches of the island of Budelli in the Maddalena Archipelago and archaeological treasures like the ancient city of Nora, Sardinia has a wealth of secrets waiting to be uncovered.
