Pros: Sun, hand made crafts, red coral jewelry, seafood pasta.

| majorc's Full Review: Sardinia |
Alghero is a great place to visit for a long weekend. On the Northwest coast of Sardinia, Italy, it has a many fun things to do:
- visit Neptune's Grotto, a cave complex right on the coast
- shop for red coral jewelry, an Alghero-only commodity
- discover hand made Sardinia knives, pottery, and wool products
- eat great seafood pasta
- visit nearby Bosa
- use Ryan Air to get there cheaply
For couples, history buffs, I recommend staying with Mario Galasso, a Professor of post-medieval marine archeology and B&B host of El Buric. B&B El Buric is on the web. Great company, affordable price, near water and downtown.
