Holiday Sant'Antioco 2019

Sant’Antioco is probably the liveliest resort in the Sulcis region during the summer months. In fact, it offers plenty of bars with live music and restaurants and a couple of disco clubs for the nightlife lovers (Favola and Aquarium). The restaurants and pizzerias provide a large variety of tasty local cuisine and wine of the area. Throughout the holiday season the local council organizes plenty of concerts in the town’s main square and other open air activities and entertainment for everyone. 

The local marina is well equipped for small and mid-sized boats and offers all the sailing services they need. The marina is a very lively area of the town even in the daytime. All fisherman come back early in the morning from fishing and sell the fresh catches directly from the boats to restaurant owners and local families. From the marina also depart the boat trips around the island which visit coves and little beaches that wouldn’t be seen if travelling through the island by car.  

The beaches of Sant'Antioco are lovely, ideal for snorkelling and diving. The services and facilities are very good with beach umbrellas, deck chairs, bars and kiosks that also provide light lunches. The most popular sandy beaches for families with children are: Coaquaddus, Maladroxia, Saline, and Great Beach. Others with a mixture of sand and pebbles like Portixeddu and Turri. Other areas of the coastline have rugged cliffs facing the crystal clear sea, such as in Is Praneddas, Cala della Signora, Cala Grotta e Nido dei Passeri. Some beaches are only reachable by boat: Portu Sciusciau is one of them and provides lovely scenery to the visitors with its natural rocky arch in the sea. 

Sant'Antioco provides plenty of choice for everyone: white sandy beaches where kids can play freely and adults can relax comfortably and those who prefer rocky coastline and scenery for hiking and trekking can do so too. 

The almost constant presence of a light breeze allows the practice of the windsurfing and kite surfing. Canoeing and horseback riding are also recommended for an active holiday. We highly recommend a holiday in Sant’Antioco in 2019.
