So you have not traveled to a new place for years now? How would you like to escape your fussy, cosmopolitan lifestyle and go to a place where you can wear your hair down, slip into your pajamas and sip your Mai Tai all day while you wait for sunset? How would you like to pack your bags now and fly to Sardinia, Italy?

Perfect weather

Sardinia is a wonderful place to visit for tourists from anywhere in the world. Blessed with long summers and mild winters, Sardinia never snows or freezes. In fact, on warm sunny days of winter, you can find a sheltered spot on a beach and actually sunbathe. The mild winters make Sardinia an ideal vacation place all year long. On the other hand, hot summer days in Sardinia are refreshed by the frequent Mistral wind.

Lots of outdoor activities

The Italian island offers all the amenities today's travelers would not want to miss out on. Whether you're traveling with 2 or 20 people, Sardinia is a great getaway place that will satisfy even the most hard-to-please tourists.

If you want to swim in beaches, choose between Villasimius and Pulain in the south, or Porto Cervo and Costa Smeralda up north where the rich and famous go. If you want a brush with history, visit the Nuraghe buildings in Barumini. These are ancient stone towers that date back from the 6th to 11th century.

If you enjoy spelunking, you can go to the Caves of Is Zuddas and see the astonishing formations of stalactites and stalagmites. In Cagliari, you can enjoy the beautiful views from Castello, the old town which faces the gulf. Absolutely breathtaking.

Every Sunday the Bastione in Castello holds a second-hand market where anyone can purchase all sorts of items: from coins and stamps to old clothes, bags, books and car parts.

Safe neighborhood

Generally, Sardinia is a safe place to stay tourists. In the small towns, people still leave their cars with the key inside and their houses open. However, be more careful about locking up during the month of August, when many tourists and visitors are around. If you are in Costa Smeralda, however, there is nothing to worry about because residents have their private guards doing round-the-clock surveillance and ensuring excellent security in the area.

Nightlife

If you like long nights of conversations and partying, there's a place for you in Sardinia. Nightlife on the Costa Smeralda offers varied choices: simple and laid-back, or upbeat and fashionable, where Europe's glitterati flock during July and August. You can choose among the relaxed piano bars on the piazzetta in Porto Cervo or go for the more frenzied Billionaire Club, owned by the famous Flavio Briatore of Benetton the Formula One racing team.
