    TRIP OVERVIEW There is no better way to experience the stunning natural beauty and idyllic waters of Sardinia’s Emerald Coast than with this fully guided swimming holiday in one of Italy’s most picturesque locations. From gorgeous turquoise seas to stunning island coastlines, this beautiful Mediterranean destination is just waiting to be explored. The Maddalena archipelago, which forms part of Sardinia’s Emerald Coast, is a small group of seven islands featuring crystal clear waters, pink sand beaches, dramatic blue cliffs rising from deep sea beds and a series of coves and rocks which offer intense colours and beautiful vistas around every corner. The National Park, which was formed in 1994 as ‘Parco Nazionale Arcipelago di La Maddalena’, is located ​ ​ inside the Straits of Bonifacio between the islands of Sardinia and Corsica. The southern part of the archipelago with the two largest islands of La Maddalena and Caprera are a perfect base for some dramatic coastal swims, while the more remote and uninhabited islands of Spargi, Budelli, Razzoli and Santa Maria are great venues for some challenging island-hopping swims and a short circumnavigation. The main town of La Maddalena, a short distance from our base for the week, is a picturesque traditional Sardinian town, and an ideal venue to spend some time relaxing after our daily exertions. This trip features a variety of both coastal and island-hopping interspersed with focused swim coaching by our qualified guides. If you would like to explore this part of the world, but are looking for slightly longer swimming distances, please check out our Emerald Coast Long Swims - Sardinia trip.

Tale documentazione offre un importante contributo su forme, tempi e direzionalità della circolazione di persone, cose e idee nel Mediterraneo occidentale. Parole chiave: Arcipelago di La Maddalena, ossidiana e selce, megalitismo, lunghi muri, complesso rettangolare Abstract: A wide archaeological evidence emphasizes the role played by the Archipelago of La Maddalena from the V to the III millennium B.C.
