In brief

Discover the stunning coastal cliffs and quaint towns of Sardinia through the eyes of a traveling photographer. Experience the island's distinct culture and captivating landscapes as she shares her road trip adventures along this Mediterranean gem.

Embarking on a road trip around Sardinia offers a glimpse into a world distinctly separate from mainland Italy. A photographer, Marta Giaccone, captured her journey along the coastal cliffs of this Mediterranean island that lies about 120 miles from its Italian counterpart. Upon entering the quaint town of Cuglieri, Marta encountered two women creating a warm local atmosphere on a lazy Sunday. For her, the interactions reflected the island’s close-knit feel. Meeting three locals—Antonio, Giovanni Maria, and Renzo—made her feel instantly at home, as locals refer to Sardinia simply as an “island” when discussing life away from the mainland.Marta and her partner set off from Cagliari, the capital, with plans to explore the island's fascinating 1,150 miles of coastline while engaging in swimming, hiking, and visiting nearby islands. Sardinia not only boasts stunning beaches but also a rich cultural experience that welcomes adventurers eager to embrace its beauty!
