10 Outdoor Activities in Alghero That You Shouldn't Miss

March 11, 2022 Janean Rudisill

A rare year-round resort on the Island of Winds, Alghero makes an atmospheric destination. Occupying armies have all left their marks on the old, walled city; Italian kingdoms, Carthaginians, Phoenicians, Byzantines, Arabs and Catalans have all come and gone. Offering an irresistible combination of history, architecture, culture, stylish shopping, fine food and wine, and water sports, Alghero's cobblestone streets can be explored on foot or by bus. Don't miss spectacular sea cave, Neptune's Grotto.

Andrea Jensen Sailing

Sailing with Rachel and Colin on Andrea Jensen an 82 year old traditional Danish gaff ketch is the ideal way to explore the spectacular coast and Marine Reserve around the Alghero coast. This way you avoid crowded beaches and get to enjoy the Mediterranean in peace and tranquility. The trip appeals to all ages. We moor in beautiful, clear, calm bays for lunch, swimming and snorkeling (equipment provided). A freshly prepared lunch is included with a choice of local wines. The food and drink that we offer is all bought fresh daily. We only take small groups so that we can provide a quality service ensuring ample space for relaxing and sunbathing. A welcome alternative to boats of the same size or smaller that take over 70 people. A good chance of watching dolphins makes this a memorable day out. You also have a chance to get involved in raising the sails. Red and White wines are bought from Santa Maria La Palma a local Co-Operative. We speak, English, Scottish and are learning Italian.
