Palau (Sardinia)

Located in the north-east corner of Sardinia in the prestigious Costa Smeralda region of the island, Palau is a small seaside village with beautiful views across to La Maddalena Islands. Palau is the main gateway to Arcipelago di La Maddalena’s granite islands and jewel-coloured waters. Out of town, the coast is famous for its bizarre weather-beaten rocks, such as the Roccia dell’Orso (Cape of the Bear), 6km east of Palau. The unique formation is a result of honeycomb weathering, a form of salt weathering. Along with Tempo Pausania, the road to Castelsardo is also among the most sought after destinations in Palau and the many quaint villages, religious remnants, and the valley of the moon make this a unique place to visit in Sardinia.

Our recipe of the week is made with "fregula", similar to couscous but with a more toothsome bite. This grain is typical to Sardinia and best serves with a delicious clam sauce.

Flights from Rome to Sardinia

Does anyone know if RyanAir is the only airline that flies from Rome to Sardinia, direct.

Hi, I am starting the process of building a simple minimalist studio space in Sardegna (no interiors walls, no bathroom and just a small kitchen) and I am looking for a good and trustworthy Geometra. I was wondering if anyone here had a good experience and could recommend one.
