About this activity

With its 44,000 inhabitants, it is the 5th largest city of Sardinia. Alghero is the island’s main harbour town, home to Fertilia airport and one of its best-loved cities for the popular walkway along the port’s bastions, the red roofs that touch the sky and the gorgeous natural bay that flows into the emerald sea. The shoreline is some 90 km long and known as the Coral Riviera, home to a major colony of the finest coral. The most famous beach here is Le Bombarde, blessed with crystalline water and a clean sandy bottom, it is a favourite destination of families, young people and surfing enthusiasts.

Frecce delle Grotte S.R.L

3 hours Admission not included

One of Sardinia’s most beautiful medieval cities, ALGHERO is the main resort in the northwest of the island. Although largely given over to tourism (its population can almost quadruple in July and August), the town hasn’t given up its unique character and it retains a proud and independent spirit. ALGHERO’s animated historic centre is a terrific place to hang out, and with so many excellent restaurants and bars, it makes an ideal base for exploring the beaches and beauty spots of the nearby RIVIERA DEL CORALLO, the magnificent CAVE OF NEPTUNE and the spectacular cliffs or CAPO CACCIA.One of the main attractions is the picturesque centro storico, one of the best preserved historical centres in Sardinia. Enclosed by robust, honey-colored seawalls, this is a tightly knit enclave of shady cobbled lanes, Gothic palazzi and cafe-lined piazzas. Below, yachts crowd the marina and long, sandy beaches curve away to the north. Permeating everything is a palpable Spanish atmosphere, a hangover of the city’s past as a Catalan colony. Even today, more than three centuries after the Iberians left, a form of medieval Catalan is still spoken, and street signs and menus are often written in both Catalan and Italian.
