Before discussing all of the wonderful things to see, do and eat, let’s look at Sardinia’s local culture. While Sardinia’s second-largest island is home to gorgeous crystal water Sardinia beaches, it is actually scarcely populated. Yes, in Sardinia, you hardly spot humans and cars on the road—ahhhh… sound serenity!

People of Sardinia speak Italian, of course, but Sardinian is the real local language of the island. Above all, Sardinians are very particular about their traditions and culture, are known for their delicious meals and locally grown food. 

Good news: Sardinians are welcoming and extremely kind. However, almost stubbornly so! If a local family offers you a grazing board, you may want to oblige. They may not take no for an answer – especially when it comes to food being offered and shared!

A unique custom of Sardinians brought from Arab culture is the use of a women’s head covering or muccadori. Also, Sardinians celebrate dresses – women love wearing embroidered skirts and scarves! Waistcoats and different shaped hats are common for men.

Visit Sardinia beaches any time around the year, except for August. Sardinia in August gets sweltering hot and crowded, the costs become increasingly high, and nearly all the accommodations are booked. On top of that, Sardinia beaches are flooded with tourists and locals, meaning there’s no serene beach getaway to be enjoyed!  

The best time to explore Sardinia is between April and June, when it’s not as hot. During this time, the blue-green water of Sardinia beaches is warm, the sky is clear, and the flowers are in bloom. September is another excellent time to take a walk along this dreamy coast.
