About Alghero
Alghero is located on the island of Sardinia, in the west of Italy. It is known for its natural beauty and stunning beaches. While the region’s golden beaches and magnificent bays attract many tourists each year, you will experience the comfort and peace of a fishing village. For years the city was influenced by Catalan culture and when you visit you realize that it’s nickname of ‘Little Barcelona’ is not an exaggeration. Most of the restaurants that line the historic narrow streets offer outstanding examples of Spanish tapa. The best thing to do here is enjoy the warm Mediterranean sun and sea. You can enjoy a long summer season in the azure bays and beautiful beaches from the end of April until the middle of October.
One of the most admired is the La Pelosa beach with unique blue waters and fine sand. Since Alghero was under Catalan influence for so many years a significant portion of the population speaks Catalan. We recommend learning some basic Catalan words before coming to make it easier.
