In the House Museum you can see the rooms where the hero of Two Worlds spent the last intense few years of his life; here you can really understand the passion that Giu- seppe Garibaldi had for his homeland and “his” island.

n Punta Li Canneddi and the bays on the West Coast The spectacular coastline that extends from Isola Rossa as far as Costa Paradiso offers unique landscapes made up of red granite gorges and ravines that descend into the transparent emerald green waters. This stretch of coast, not often mentioned in guide books but well known to us Gallu- resi, has maintained its wild beauty intact, and it can also be seen from under the water, thanks to the marine sea bed envi- ronment which supports an impressive amount of seashells, marine and vegetable life forms.
