One may wonder what is a holiday in Sardinia all about? As in, most people go here for a nice relaxing vacation at the beach, to lay on the white sandy beaches and enjoy the turquoise waters. And they are not at all wrong! Sardinia is a fabulous island, with great water sports and beach opportunities, but also with a wide array of cultural and historical attractions, like castles and fortresses and quaint little cities that perfectly preserved the medieval charm of the place. The Barbagia region is a beautiful and remote mountainous area where you can go on hiking and taking long walks that reward you with serene views. A holiday park in Sardinia sets you on an island with an interesting mix of influences in its culture, food, wine, architecture.
Cagliari is Sardinia's biggest town, set on the south coast of the island, since the days of Rome. The Castello district here on top of a hill will mystify you with astonishing views over the port, and the two Pisan towers that watch over the city walls are silent witnesses of the island's tumultuous history. There's also the old city of Oristano, with the lagoons and canals all around it. Tharros prides itself with the Punic and Roman digs, and the medieval town of Bosa is highly praised for its authentic atmosphere and its old castle and cathedral, definitely worth a visit during your family holiday in Sardinia.
The tumultuous history of the island also left a mark on its cuisine so a holiday in Sardinia is also about the heart rustic food to be found here like wild boar, spit-roasted pig with myrtle and lamb. The food is complimented with aubergines, artichokes, couscous and nougat and while here you should also not miss out on the delicious bread that is a characteristic of the island as well as salty percorino sardo cheese. Enjoy it with a glass of wine on the terrace of a holiday park in Sardinia, together with loved ones, to make for an evening to remember. The seafood here is also great, you are on an island after all, so a seafood dish with sea urchins, or octopus, dogfish and even caviar in bottarga (dried and salted mullet eggs with celery) just have to land on your plate before you leave. Sardinia is more than a beach holiday destination, and this you have to see for yourself!
