Olbia in the middle of this area, is a dirty port with big ships/ferries but with a very pleasant, clean and touristic city.

Around Olbia there is a large area with a very beautiful archepelago with lots of nice beaches to drop the anchor. If you prefer to visit a marina, you will be robbed, it’s very expensive indeed!
For instance, per night
Circolo Nautico in Olbia, 78€
Cavallo in Olbia, 125€
Rotondo, just N of Olbia, 205€
Porto Cervo, N of Olbia, 150€ for a mooring buoy

The beaches are wonderful, but on weekends crowded.

To rent an umbrella and sun chair is not cheap

The daily fruit, veggie, meat and fish market. Great one!

Today we visited the city of Iglesias with train, some 60 km west of Cagliari. Iglesias have a reputation as “the city for Honeymooners”. However we could not find out any special reason why this nickname. Maybe we have honeymoon every day onboard Cantana3?

Today Friday June 21 is the longest day in the year. This day is very thorough celebrated in Sweden in all different ways. Please visit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8ZLpGOOA1Q&sns=em

We however celebrated this day by staying in a marina located in the very heart of the fantastic city Cagliari. A really beautiful and clean city with lots of gorgeous old restored buildings.
When I visited this city first time by boat 20 years ago (!) it was rather worn down and dirty. Indeed it has changed totally.

Now it’s also famous for all well designed and well built “buildings” on two legs. I do agree.

Thanks Ikea for sill and snaps:

Sundown at sea. It’s the same sun !

A free passenger!

Again, a not so nice harbour but a beautiful and charming city with lots of grand churches and buildings. A green city despite being surrounded by sea from three sides.

À very picturesque and nice city but ugly fishing harbor. Well known for beautiful ceramics. First really warm summer day around 25C but just 50 km NW is 4 C lower. No wonder we have a lot of wind here. Waiting for less wind or an from other direction not from our nose.
