Start your discoveries in the town of Arzachena – an old fishing village now turned sporty seaside resort. Take a look at ancient archeological sites like the Tomba dei Giganti Li Lolghi (mysterious giants' tombs) and the weird granite stone formations. You can also go diving, swimming, sailing and horse riding, or enjoy a relaxing game of golf.
