GUIDE TO CAGLIARI

cagliari holidays Image

A Very Versatile City

Fine Beaches, History Galore And Fabulous Cuisine

Cagliari holidays will give you a base in the capital of Sardinia, an area which is located on the south west coast of the island. You will find a very versatile city at your disposal with a wide range of activities available including some great hiking trails and a choice of some of the finest beaches around, especially the six mile long Poetto beach. A great selection of accommodation is available for you to stay in on your holidays in Cagliari, whilst the favourable Mediterranean climate ensures mild winters and long, hot summers for you to enjoy.

There is plenty of historical interest in Cagliari also, with Spanish-influenced architecture, medieval towers and an abundance of museums for you to browse - the city has a walled old town too which only adds to the atmosphere. The Spanish influences spill over to the local cuisine also, with seafood dishes being the main specialities here served by the restaurants at the beautiful marina, which also boasts many caf?s and bars to relax and have a refreshing drink in.

Enjoy Colourful Festivals

If you like shopping then you won't be left disappointed on your Cagliari holidays, as there are a multitude of shops to wander around here, whilst many colourful festivals take place throughout the year and offer a great way of interacting with the locals. Cagliari is an excellent base to have especially if you fancy exploring other areas during your stay - there are ferry links here to the neighbouring isle of Sicily and the Italian mainland.

It would be impossible to talk about Cagliari without mentioning their football team. The 'Rossoblu' won their only scudetto in 1970, due in no small part to Gigi Riva who went on to become one of Italy's best all-time strikers. They play at the Stadio Sant'Elia and have been regulars in 'Serie A' since their triumph. One home grown talent in particular should be instantly recognisable with followers of the English game - his name? Gianfranco Zola! Book holidays to Cagliari online here at Late Deals.
