Sardinia Grand Loop Road Trip
Fly into Cagliari and out of Olbia, journeying from the Nuragic ruins to La Maddalena and the Gulf of Orosei.
A one-way journey traversing the entire island, covering four major areas: the southern coast, Barumini, Bosa, Alghero, the La Maddalena Archipelago, and the Gulf of Orosei. This route avoids backtracking and involves four accommodation changes. Perfect for first-time road trippers with ample time; the southwestern mining district and the southeastern coast are omitted to manage driving distances.
July and August are crowded and hot. Access to Pelosa Beach requires advance reservations from mid-May to mid-October.
