THE PORT OF CAGLIARI
The port of Cagliari, throughout the history, has been one of the most important ports in Italy and is one of the largest seaports in the country, as well as one of the largest in the Mediterranean Sea. A lot of merchandise and passengers move. The port was founded by the Phoenicians, and subsequently the Carthaginians passed by and then the Romans.

The facilities of this port are frankly large and although it is not allowed to walk through them, if there are some areas that allow you…
ARGENTIERA, THE FORGOTTEN HISTORY PROTECTED BY THE SEA AND THE WIND
Argentiera. What a particular place. A stop along the way. Argentiera is a piece of island history protected by a rough sea and a terrible wind that never stops blowing. It is certainly a different place, which we have to recommend for its strangeness. Maybe not all audiences like it, but Argentiera has a beauty that catches many of us because of the feelings that are lived there. Argentiera is a small town, formed by several buildings and containing an abandoned mine, which can be visited. It is a photograph of another era, times of struggle and hard work of…

SEPTEMBER
In September the colors are warmer. The light is softer and contours of things are more defined. Although the days begin to shorten, I live more intensely the little moments that I can steal to go to the sea.

IL CAMINETTO IN CABRAS
Il Caminetto is perhaps the most famous restaurant in Cabras, highlighted in the Michelin Guide and usually appears in most known tourist guides. Il Caminetto is characterized by fish dishes made with a very classic style. It is also the most “elegant” restaurant in the town and surroundings, where even though you can go casual dress, at night, customers take the opportunity to get ready for a little more and also to be a place for special celebrations, also given its price . We will not lie, it is expensive. In our opinion some dishes have an exaggerated price and…
