Magomadas is a small hillside village 10 minutes from the historic town of Bosa. Bosa is set on the banks of the River Temo, the only navigable river in Sardinia; its origins go back to Phoenician times. The old historical town centre spreads up the side of the hill away from the river and is topped by the Malaspina Castle. The walk up through the cobbled street leading up to the castle is well worth the effort. The views from here encompass the whole of Bosa and Bosa Marina, the river to the sea. Bosa has many pavement bars and cafes, as well as shops and museums, churches and a cathedral. It is possible to buy many examples of local traditional crafts.
Not a 5-minute drive from Bosa is the seaside resort of Bosa Marina. The main attraction here is the long, wide strip of gently shelving beach leading into crystal clear water. Here, not only will you find a variety of beach bars, restaurants and shops but also there are facilities for many water sports.
