SARDINIA

Emerald Coast, Stintino, Porto Cervo, Lavezzi, Maddalena, Cavalo.
Sardinia is situated in the middle of the Western Mediterranean, lies just 12 km from Corsica, at a distance of 120 km from Tuscany and 185 Km from the North African coast. It is surrounded by shallow seas, and its coastline measures 1,849 Km in total.
Sardinian coasts are generally high and rocky, and in many sections run more or less straight; the coast is however varied by more articulated sections, with promontories and wide and deep bays surrounded by islets. Where the coast is low and leads to plains, the sea seems at times to reach inland by means of marshes, wetlands or sandy dunes. The coast is more rugged and broken in large sections in the northwest and northeast.
Climate
The weather is generally good - over the year there is an average of 300 days of sunshine, with rain during the remaining period; the largest concentration of rainy days occurs during the winter and autumn, with some sudden showers in springtime.
The average temperature in July is 24°C while in January it is 11°C; humidity is around 70% (annual average).
The island is swept by many winds - firstly by the mistral, a wind from the northwest, which is fresh and piercing in the winter, and during the summer months mitigates the heat, making the air drier and more breathable.
