On the Emerald Coast
Sardinia is the second largest Italian island after Sicily. It is characterized by a very diversified coast, which adds charm and mystery to it. Sandy beaches, rugged rocks, fairy-tale coves, islets and the emerald color of the sea attract tourists. Sardinia also boasts historic cities such as Cagliari and Alghero. A very popular tourist destination in Sardinia is Costa Smeralda, or the Emerald Coast . It is a very picturesque stretch of coast that stretches between Cannigione and Porto Rotondo . The name of this place is associated with the color of the sea - this is where it takes on a turquoise-emerald color. The Emerald Coast has a very well-developed tourist base , which is associated with an interesting history. In the 1960s, Arab prince Aga Khan saw an undeveloped stretch of Sardinia and fell in love with it so much that he founded a consortium that turned this part of the coast into a luxury tourist center.
