Camping Baia Blu la Tortuga
Tortuga is named after the giant turtle-like rock off the site’s beautiful sandy beach and is a large, professionally run campsite. The 450 sizeable touring pitches (all with 3/10A electricity) are on grass and coarse-grained sand and mostly shaded by tall pines with banks of colourful oleanders and superb wide paved boulevards providing easy access.
Camping Nuraghe Ruiu
This small, tranquil site is inland, in a cool area of olive groves and the vineyards that produce Vernacchia wines. There are 46 grassy touring pitches here, all fully serviced (16A electricity) with shade from cork trees. On-site amenities include a pleasant swimming pool with lifeguard and, overlooking the pool, a bar/restaurant specialising in local cuisine. Musical entertainment is provided in high season. The site will be pleased to recommend walking and cycling routes in the area and there is a great deal to explore, including numerous ancient archaeological sites. We enjoyed this refreshing experience, which is a complete contrast to the beach areas.
Camping la Liccia
Campsite La Liccia is a campsite in Santa Teresa Gallura, Olbia-Tempio; situated on a hill overlooking a very long white sandy beach ( a 10 min walk away), this beautiful natural setting makes it the perfect choice for all those who enjoy a mix of sporty adventures and relaxing in the sun on their holiday.This terraced campsite and campsite with sloping grounds has 145 touring pitches, which are marked out with shade.
Camping Capo Ferrato
Situated at the southern end of the magnificent Costa Rei, this small, very friendly and well managed site has 83 touring pitches, many in great positions on the superb white sand beachfront. All pitches have 3/6A electricity, are of generous proportions and the whole site enjoys absolute tranquillity. The charming restaurant holds it own against the village competition and special evenings are often held when the local wines are matched to the food served. This site is brilliant for beach lovers and there are many watersports on offer. It is reasonably priced and we thoroughly enjoyed the extremely happy, small site atmosphere.
Tiliguerta Camping Village
This family site situated at Capo Ferrato has been owned by the same family for a quarter of a century and improvements are made every year, all of them in sympathy with the environment. The 186 reasonably sized pitches are on sand and have 3A electricity. Some have shade and views of the superb, sandy beach and the sea beyond.
Camping Capo d’Orso
Capo d’Orso is a large, attractive, terraced site with views of the Maddalena Archipelago. Set into a hillside that slopes down to the sea, the 450 terraced pitches (40-80 sq.m) are of gravel, grass and sand, some with views over the sea and some others set alongside the beach. All have 3A electricity. Access to the pitches is good despite the rocky terrain. Cars are parked away from the pitches in high season. The very Italian restaurant at the top of the amenities building serves delicious meals and has a covered terrace giving excellent sea views. This site is suitable for families.
Centro Vacanze Isuledda
This large, high-quality campsite is part of the Baia group and has something for everyone, with an amazing choice of activities and entertainment. The site's coastline includes three kilometres of beaches, one with a busy marina. There is also an excellent dive school and a good choice of watersports and activities available.
Camping Village Laguna Blu
Camping Village Laguna Blu is a large site, pleasantly placed between the sea and a huge lagoon, the beach being directly across the road from the site. Most of the 600 pitches (450 for touring units) have 6A electricity and are shaded with pine and eucalyptus trees. Some pitches are in the trees; others are on level ground in long rows, the end ones enjoying lagoon-side positions. A considerable number are fully serviced. On-site amenities are close to the entrance and include a novel white, canvas-roofed restaurant/pizzeria plus a self-service restaurant. The site offers an ambitious entertainment programme and many watersports, notably windsurfing and sailing. It is also a good base for exploring northern Sardinia. One of the most popular excursions is to the beautiful Grotte di Nettuno (Neptune’s Grotto). The site is a member of the Baia Group and reflects its high standards.
Camping Torre del Porticciolo
Torre del Porticciolo is set high on a peninsula with fabulous views from some parts of the site over the sea and old fortifications. It is family-owned, with striking traditional old buildings and attractive landscaping. Spread over a large area, pine trees mainly surround the site. A few pitches enjoy limited sea views. The campsite is located high above the beach, giving you a beautiful view of the rocky coast and the sea. A long staircase leads you to the private beach, an ideal location for snorkelling. The swimming pool is also a wonderful place to enjoy your holiday.
Villaggio Camp Nurral
Villagio Camp Nurral is a small unkempt site half a kilometre from the sea. This site has the disadvantage of having a great deal of rubbish on its approach road. Some kind of informal traveller’s camp is next door which is very unfortunate as it may lead one to believe there would be security problems in the site. The traditional restaurant has a certain charm which if all the other problems were solved, could be inviting. There is a small bar with cane furniture under canvas pergolas which again could be pleasant if one ignores the aforementioned problems. In its current condition this site would only suit those on a very tight budget who had run out of other camping ideas.
Camping la Foce
Enthusiastic Matteo Lampati and his wife, Ivona, run la Foce, an attractive, sprawling site in the Golfo del Asinara. A novel feature is the motorbarge to ferry campers to a secluded area of the sea coast on the other side of the river, which flows alongside the site. Here they can enjoy the golden sand dunes and have a refreshing swim away from other beach-goers. The 300 sandy pitches (with 4/6A electricity) vary in size and are informally arranged under tall shady eucalyptus trees stretching along the length of the site, some close to the river. There is a full entertainment programme in high season. We found this site to be of a much higher standard than most on this coastline.
Villaggio Camping Baia Saraceno
Villaggio Camping Baia Saraceno is in Sardinia, Costa Smeralda, where you will find many beautiful beaches. You can holiday in a region that offers multiple landscapes rich in olive and eucalyptus trees. You can easily reach the site from the charming port town of Palau. The site has 348 pitches of which 280 are for touring units and have a 10-amp hook-up points. Several terraces offer sea views, and Bamboo plants protect some pitches but there is little shade. Cars are parked in a separate area if you are travelling with a caravan or tent. This helps to keep the site safe.
Villaggio Spiaggia Del Riso
Villaggio Spiaggia Del Riso is well kept and professionally run. It is split by a public road, but there is an underpass for campers. Pitches on both sides of the site are mostly flat, some shaded and all with 3A electricity. The area beside the beach has open pitches for caravans and motorhomes with sea views but with a low artificially shaded area alongside. The beaches are reached directly from the site, the main being a fine sandy bay between rocky outcrops and a marina close by. Parents can relax whilst their children swim here.
Camping Telis
Camping Telis has been cleverly carved out of a steep and rocky hillside above the bay of Port Frailis. The 130 fairly level pitches (with 6A electricity) are mostly well shaded and have absolutely superb views over the bay. There is direct but deeply stepped access to two small private beaches, one sandy, the other a little rugged. The lovely restaurant and bar have very long terraces and are perfect for a relaxing evening whilst enjoying the fabulous views. Two saltwater swimming pools and an impressive wellness centre are new additions to this quality site. The site is not suitable for those with reduced mobility.
Camping Villaggio Baia Paradiso
Access to this site is via a narrow gravel and sand track which could prove difficult for some units. Baia Paridiso is a sprawling site, with pitches (3/6A electricity) informally set into wooded sand dunes. Exploring the campsite was like stepping back to a once glamorous sixties style camping using tents. Caravans and motorhomes may struggle with access problems here. There are very good sports courts and a bar and restaurant, along with other features which seem to be emerging from a long slumber. However the very clean sanitary blocks need a complete overhaul meaning the site is currently (2011), only good for hardy campers or those with their own facilities. There are major renovations underway and things are looking encouraging.
Camping Flumendosa
Camping Flumendosa is a 2.5 hectare site set in a leafy pine forest, just across the road from the sandy beach and shallow clear waters of the lively town of Santa Margherita di Pula, on the southern coast of Sardinia. The 100 pitches of 70 sq. m. have 8A Europlug electrical connections and water points around. With a focus on fun, relaxation and nature, this site is ideally located for a range of activities including, mountain-biking, horse riding, hiking and diving. A day could be spent at the nearby Blue-Fan Water Park or at the Pula Aerial Adventure Park. For the more archaeologically minded, a visit to the ruins of Nora, one of the most important archaeological sites on Sardinia is a must.
Camping Isola Dei Gabbiani
Isola dei Gabbiani is, in fact, not an island but a peninsula close to the northern tip of Sardinia. The campsite is located in the north of the peninsula overlooking the Maddalena Archipelago National Park. Pitches are available for tents, some in small areas of Mediterranean scrub and almost all with views of the sea; caravans and motorhomes can be sited in the many secluded coves, or in the central area with full facilities. The village also has bungalows for hire and boasts numerous coves and beaches, including a fully serviced beach with loungers for hire and a bar service to your beach umbrella! A redevelopment programme is currently underway.
Selema Camping
Selema is a pretty site with a tropical feel and direct beach access. There is considerable shade from pine and eucalyptus, although access to many pitches is restricted by tall, bending trees. Flowers and cacti have been used to provide landscaping features and unusually there are well watered, grassy areas. There are 200 large pitches of grass and sand, well shaded with shallow terracing. The site runs along the Pineta coast with its long white sandy beaches and vibrant blue water and has a wide river flowing along the other side. Some pitches are near the path to the beach and a few have views of the distant mountains. Staff speak English and are very helpful.
Camping Village Spinnaker
Spinnaker Village is a smart, purpose-built, modern beach site set on the undulating foreshore under tall pines, with a superb beach frontage to the camping area. Whilst there are no sea views from the pitches, it is an easy 60-metre stroll to the fine white sand where there are free sun loungers and parasols. It is a pleasant walk along the beach to the resort of Marina Torre Grande, and excursions from the site could include a visit to the marine reserve of Sinis Isola di Mal di Ventre or the ruins of Tharros and Santa Christina – a Nuraghe village.

Sardinia

With dramatic, rolling uplands covered with grassland, and a beautiful coastline boasting isolated coves, long sandy beaches and hidden caves, Sardinia offers more than just sunshine and clear waters: littered around the island are thousands of prehistoric nuraghic remains.

Cágliari

Sardinia is a large island off the western coast of mainland Italy and located in the Mediterranean Sea. With a range of superb activities on offer and a wonderful diversity in landscape, Sardinia provides the perfect escape for campers of any age.

The busy port of Cágliari is the island’s capital. Attractions include the city walls, archaeology museum and cathedral plus an impressive Roman amphitheatre. More ruins can be found just outside the city at Nora, while some 7,000 or so nuraghi are dotted all around the island. Uniqueto Sardinia, these stone-built constructions are remnants of Sardinia’s only significant native culture. The most famous of them is at Su Nuraxi, the oldest and largest nuraghic complex, dating from around 1500 BC. The island’s second city, Sássari, is known for its spectacular Cavalcata festival on Ascension Day; festivities include traditional singing and dancing plus a horse race.

Not far from Sássari is Alghero, a major fishing port and the island’s oldest resort. Surrounded by walls and defensive towers, the old town is full of narrow, cobbled streets with flamboyant churches and brightly coloured houses. Boat or car trips can also be made to Neptune’s Grotto, a spectacular, deep marine cave, around the point of Capo Caccia. Sardinia’s best known resort is the Costa Smeralda, one of the Mediterranean’s loveliest stretches of coast, a 10 km. strip between the gulfs of Cugnana and Arzachena. Beaches can be found at Capriccioli, Rena Bianca and Liscia Ruia. 

The selection of campsites recommended by Alan Rogers also allow you to bring your own accommodation or stay onsite. This is all for your convenience, so whether you’re a caravanning veteran or would rather relax in a chalet for the trip, you’ll be able to find exactly what you need.

Sardinia has four provinces: Cagliari, Nuoro, Oristano and Sassari.
