Precisely because of the continuous change of scenery, Sardinia is defined by many almost a continent. Different scenarios, different territories, cultures and traditions that vary from town to town. A complete land Sardegne (final "e" marks plural in Italian, meaning that there is not only one Sardinia but many different Sardinians=Sardegne).

If the nature is the basic element that you are looking for when you plan your holidays, Sardinia is certainly the ideal choice. Sea, fantastic rocks, an enless number of different beaches, mountains, coasts, lowland areas, plateaus, rivers and lakes, rocky canyons, forests, marine and terrestrial parks, caves. You can still find unspoiled areas and many other small man-made environments. All this is likely to be experienced in the way that most suit the needs of travelers.

From sea to mountain areas there is a wide range of natural scenarios perfect to practice different sports.
