Caribbean waters in the Mediterranean — Sardinia's beaches are the clearest in Europe.
Cagliari, the capital of Sardinia, is one of Italy's best-kept secrets: a Roman amphitheatre, a medieval Castello quarter, and dazzling white sand beaches like Poetto are all within easy reach. The island interior holds authentic Sard culture, ancient nuraghe towers, and dramatic mountain gorges.
