Sardinia Maps and Orientation

(Sardinia, Italy)



Aerial view of Cagliari, the largest city on the island of SardiniaSardinia sits in the middle of the Mediterranean, just below the French island of Corsica, and about a third of the way between the Italian Peninsula and the Spanish east coast. Sicily is off to the south-east and the coast of North Africa / Tunisia is the same distance, again due south.

Sardinia is an autonomous region of Italy and is a large island - the second-biggest in the Mediterranean after Sicily. It features lofty terrain, mostly hilly coverage with few high mountains and has a rocky coastline. A relatively small proportion of the island is flat.


Maps and Orientation of the Island

Most of Sardinia's cities and towns lie around the coast, including the capital, Cagliari, set right down in the south. Long stretches of sand, deep bays and rocky headlands separate the towns and cities.

Most urban centres are easily navigable as they are generally compact, although most are centuries-old and have winding streets. For maps, head to the tourist office of the respective city or purchase online before travelling.
