Sardinia is in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. The coast line is rich of beautiful, sandy beaches. Also the mountain area is fascinating and there are many nice towns and villages with festivals and folklore displays. There are more than 700 Nuraghes, stone towers and villages built during the 18'-15' centuries. Alghero is the most important city in Sardegna, where the sea is caribbean-like. Alghero Bay is a protected marine park 'Parco Marino di Porto Conte' where you can see the dark-red coral and lots of fish. There are many beautiful Roman and Gothic Catalan churches. Alghero gives you lots of opportunities for riding, biking, cave-diving, snorkelling, surfing, scuba diving, etc. Alghero, which is a city of art and culture, is full of towers (Torre del Portal, Sant Joan, de la Magdelena, etc). The apt. is near Porta Terra (Torre del Portal) which was the principal entry of Alghero in the past centuries. Now it is a reception centre.
