CAGLIARI PROVINCE TRAVEL PLANNING

The province of Cagliari is large (4,569 sq.km) and accounts for almost 20% of the island of Sardinia. The capital city of the province, Cagliari, is also the capital of the whole of Sardinia. This province is in the south of the island and has the Sardinian Sea to the west, the Strait of Sardinia to the south and the South Tyrrhenian Sea to the east. It has the provinces of Nuoro, Oliastra and Oristana to the north and the provinces of Carbonia-Iglesia and Medio Campidano to the west. The terrain is rocky with a wide variety of rocks, caves and minerals along both the coast and higher inland areas. The Molentargius Lagoon is located in this province and stretches eastwards from the city of Cagliari to the long sandy coast of Poetto. This large lagoon is a regional park and is of great importance as it has a delicate ecosystem which attracts many birds and it is home to 180 different species, some of which are extremely rare.
