This charming, historic town is located about 20 minute drive from Muntiggioni.
It’s considered one of the 100 most beautiful Italian villages. Featuring many pathways, this is a truly wonderful place to explore on foot while the castle, Castello dei Doria, is arguably the main highlight.
Castelsardo is an important commercial centre for craftsmanship and is particularly famed for its basket weaving industry. There is even a museum dedicated to this tradition, the Museo dell’Intreccio Mediterraneo, which is right at the heart of Castello dei Doria.
We especially recommend visiting Castelsardo in the late afternoon to view the sunset from the terrace of the Cathedral of Saint Anthony Abbott.
In town will find many restaurants, bars, craftsman and souvenir shops. Some of our favourites include Le Cisterne Restaurant and The View Bar Lounge.
