Casa La Nassa di Porto Alabe, Tresnuraghes - Sardinia
Small but nice terraced house by the sea! The beach is only a few meters away and as a bonus the unique sunset can be seen from the terrace every evening! The small, quiet beach resort of Porto Alabe in western Sardinia offers restaurants and a small supermarket from Easter to October.
About the accommodation
This small but nice semi-detached apartment has everything you need for a holiday: a living and dining room with a simple kitchenette and a sofa bed, a separate bedroom with double bed and a terrace - and what a terrace! If you don't want to watch the sun set over the Mediterranean every night, prepare something on the grill at the back of the house. A few steps lead to the beach at about 400 meters, which is not only popular with families because of its sheltered location.
Activities
The multicolored, coarse-grained, wide sandy beach of Porto Alabe is framed by rocky outcrops and wild sea lilies and succulents grow on the ocher sand. And the azure blue and emerald green shimmering water - simply beautiful! Because the bay is sheltered, there are rarely strong winds, making it popular for families with children, even though the beach does not slope gradually into the sea. Especially in winter it can happen that dead seaweed is washed up by the wind and waves and remains there. The Neptune grasses are not algae, but a fundamental part of a natural beach.
A beautiful coastal walk starts from Porto Alabe, so directly from the holiday home. From the car park you can go south on a narrow path along the coast, after about 10 minutes you will come to a small bay and you can continue directly above the cliffs to the Torre Columbargia tower.
Apart from a cafe, restaurant and pizzeria and a corner shop, Porto Alabe itself doesn't have much to offer - which is a good thing, because when you're here on vacation you want to be far from the hustle and bustle and relax.
If you like it now and then, take a trip to Bosa. In the lively town on the River Temo, many are always on their feet every night for a "Passeggiata" and there is always something to celebrate in weekends - Bosa is the small town with the most festivals and events on the island.

Tresnuraghes
It is still a hidden gem for most tourists; the pure west coast of Sardinia.
The small Sardinian village of Tresnuraghes is located in the northwest of the island. The village has a small village center with historic churches, squares, a few village bars, a restaurant and a few local shops.
From the village you can easily reach the beaches of Porto Alabe by car, the ocher-coloured, coarse-grained, wide sandy beach framed by overgrown sand dunes.
For those who want a little more adventure, Torre Foghe, Cala Columbargia or one of the other secluded coves are well worth a visit!
The area is characterized by a wide variety of overwhelming nature. Whichever direction you shall choose, the sea, inland, north or south, it is unforgettably impressive and of enchanting beauty.
But not only nature is beautiful. The villages each have their own character. Like for example Tinnura, this village; 'un paese dell'arte', is marked by the authentic Sardinian wall paintings.
The most photographed town in Sardinia is Bosa. An old and picturesque fishing village on the river Temo. This river, the atmospheric narrow streets, the pastel-colored houses, the robust castle on the hill and the tangible history give Bosa a unique and atmospheric character.
A typical Italian atmosphere with narrow streets, stairs and balconies, artists and chatting Sardinians between the colorful houses. It is a cozy maze and it takes you to the most photogenic places. Bosa offers a wide choice of shops, restaurants and bars along the river or on one of the many squares.
Another highlight is the panoramic coastal route from Tresnuraghes to Alghero.
About 50 kilometers that winds between the sea and the mountain makes this road one of the most beautiful coastal routes in Italy, where it really seems like you are in paradise. Do not rush and enjoy every corner, every turn and every stop, every moment along this route that is one of the natural wonders of Italy.
Alghero is also well worth a visit, this town is a piece of Catalonia on Sardinian soil and is also called 'little Barcelona'. Take a relaxed stroll in the old town, have lunch along the water and end, sitting on the wide city wall, enjoying the breathtaking sunset.
Discover the beautiful interior of Sardinia and drive back to Tresnuraghes via a road through the mountains of Alghero. Along the way it is not rare that you have to stop for a herd of cows or sheep. Different landscapes and serenity makes this a scenic drive that shows that Sardinia has more to offer than just a beautiful coast.
Towards the south, the island offers a very different landscape; more plateaus and numerous olive trees, many more than a thousand years old. The inlands around Cuglieri and Scano di Monteferru are also impressive. You sometimes imagine yourself in prehistoric times in this mountainous and rough landscape. The villages are well worth a visit, beautiful narrow streets. Vist one of the terraces of one of the many authentic bars and take a look to the Sardinians.
You will also find Nuraghes in this region, such as the archaeological site of Tamuli, which is located on a plateau near Macomer in an area with a high density of Bronze Age nuraghi. The site itself consists of a nuraghe, the remains of a settlement, the remains of three Tombe di Giganti and, very special, six menhirs.

Discover the province of Oristano in west Sardinia
In the west of Sardinia is the province of Oristano with the capital of the same name. This region is quite flat and has relatively little tourism, the reason for this special region is dominated by olive cultivation, fishing, agriculture and livestock farming! In this region you will find extensive vineyards with the typical Oristan Vernaccia grapes.The extensive tasting of this delicious wine is a must! Taste this wine here! Discover for example the small authentic town Bosa, but also one of the numerous archaeological remains dating back to before our era are certainly worth a visit. Also visit the Sinis peninsula, of which the entire coastal area is a protected area. Capo San Marco is the northern tip of the Gulf of Oristano and is a wonderful place for a small excursion by bike or hike. Take a refreshing dip from one of the beautiful beaches of San Giovanni di Sinis. At the lake of Santa Giusta you can see pink flamingos and other birds that live here in a paradise of their own! Around the fishing village of Cabras is produced the delicious bottarga (roe), which is used in many Sardinian dishes. In the town of Oristano, an equestrian tournament is still held every year during Carnival: "Sa Sartiglia", masked horsemen galloping on steeds at breath-taking speed aim their swords at a tin star.
