Our visit happened on a rainy day, and we were not expecting an exciting visit from the museum located in this quiet corner of Sardegna - wow! We were confronted with a very friendly guide, and an involving story of ancient cultures and their open attitude towards each other. We discovered many interesting details of the life lead hundreds of years b.C. and left our visit inspired and happy - definitely a must-see for anyone who is travelling in this area of Sardegna! Small bonus: there is a very friendly cat who follows around along with the guided tour, and who enjoys cuddles. Thank you to the attentive and welcoming staff of the museum!

Porto Flavia is one of Sardegna’s wonders. This extraordinary monument of industrial archaeology looms over an enchanting coastline, gifting visitors with a breathtaking vista of the thousand-shaded blue Masua sea, and on the evocative Pan di Zucchero sea stacks, a natural monument 133 metres (440 ft) tall. A genuine engineering masterpiece which improved miners’ life condition and reduced mineral transportation times and costs. The port was given its name by engineer Cesare Vecelli. He gave the port his daughter’s name. The port was operational until the 1960s.
I was lucky enough to walk-in on an off season day, and got in without reservation. I took the tour in Italian (being my first language), and the guide was excellent. (There was a tour in English, but I cannot vouch for that). Our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate, and her presentation was informative and pleasant (not mechanical as some guides who memorize the information). The parking area is just before and you have to walk a couple of minutes to the entrance. There is a food truck for snacks, sandwiches and drinks. I did not visit the public toilets but watched some other visitors not being impressed and turning away.

Worth the trip along the southwest Sardinian coast and over the mountains to this isolated beach area. Beach is popular during tourist season, but there are plenty of umbrellas and beds for rent. Food and beverage service also available. Beautiful, calm water for couples and families. About 1 hour from Pula.
