Beyond the sea, Castiadas offers authentic experiences and glimpses of the true Sardinia. The area, rich in history and nature, is dotted with ancient sheepfolds, woods, and fragrant countryside, where time seems to have stood still. A visit to the ancient Colonia Penale di Castiadas is not to be missed, now a museum that tells the story of the first settlers who made this wild area fertile. Nature lovers can explore the nearby Parco dei Sette Fratelli, a vast nature reserve populated by Sardinian deer and birds of prey, ideal for excursions, trekking, and photographic tours. In the small villages of the area, you can savour the genuine hospitality of the locals and taste the typical products such as honey, oil, cheeses, and Cannonau wine. Just a few minutes’ drive away are Costa Rei and Villasimius, to complete the holiday with sea, culture, and relaxation.
