Those who love walks in the countryside and mountains may not think to Sardinia
as their holiday destination but you will be surprise to discover the beautiful
colours of its vegetation and flowers in the springtime. If you love orchids
then, you will be really impressed by Sardinia’s wild
ones…more than fifty different varieties.
If you like the snow instead, you can take some lovely walks in the months
of January and February around the village
of Fonni. Do not expect great skiing
facilities though! Sardinia’s mountains are not very high and skiing is not
our thing really but you can still enjoy lovely views, meet our wild goats and
taste great food in some cozy farmhouse…
Top tips: We have some friends that run some lovely tours about orchids if you are interested:

After departing from the arbour of Cagliari, the boat stopped in the little “Isola dei Cavoli”, Villasimius’ arbour and finally, the splendid beach of Punta Molentis. We were staggered in little groups to be taken to the beaches and left there to enjoy a swim for an hour or so. A light lunch was served on board but we could not sit down as there were not enough seats! probably the company had overbooked as it was a Sunday… Because of the same reason it took ages to be taken up and down the beach at each stop.
Despite this, everybody liked the experience, more because of the spectacular views and sights we could see than the service we received. It is magic to swing between the blue of the sea and the sky of this stunning coast…
If I was you though, I would go on a less busier day during the week and I would not bother to go down the “Isola del Cavoli”. Although the idea sounds good the beach is very poor where the boat lives you. No commentary in English was given or available, I am afraid!
Also, some other companies with smaller boats offer this service from Cagliari or Villasimius, maybe you can try one of those. In some of these lunch consists in what is fished on the same day from the boat!
