Guide to Arzachena

"Arzachena is the only truly authentic Sardinian town in the Costa Smeralda although since the advent of the nearby jet-setting resorts the town has changed from an old agricultural village into a sporting resort – with a variety of activities on offer for those not wishing to spend their holidays on the neighbouring glamorous beaches."

For the more energetic there is an abundance of sports facilities available here including a new gym, football pitch and floodlit tennis courts, but the surrounding area of Arzachena is a delight to explore - the gently rolling hills neatly covered with rows of vineyards, the strange giants' tombs, and the blocks of granite stone whipped into odd formations by centuries of wind erosion. Shelter under the giant mushroom-shaped rock in the town when the sun gets too hot, or cool down by the fountain in the main square where the multitude of tiny alleyways scamper up to the pretty pink church at the top of the hill.
