About Weather/Climate/Temperature
Baraonda (Piazza della Misericordia 14, 079 975 922) is a chic bar with good music, great cocktails and moreish nibbles, while Café Diva (piazza Municipio 1, 079 982 306) is a laid-back retreat.
About Bars
Nightlife in Alghero is fairly low key, but start by sipping cocktails outside the elegant Cafe Latino, overlooking the pretty harbour. Enjoy another pre-dinner drink in the centre of old Alghero, where there are a number of rustic bars, such as the Jamaica Inn on Via Principe Umberto. After dinner, the locals make for the Piazza Civica. The Cafe Costantino is good for nightcaps.
there are a number of clubs and discos on the outskirts of the city, of which Il Ruscello (on the road to Olmedo) has an open-air dancefloor.
About Nightlife

If you come here looking for a gay scene then you’ll be disappointed.
About The Gay Scene
Alghero Fertilia is the principal airport for nord Sardinia, and is located about 11 kms from town. (0039) 079 935282
About Airport Information
Neptune’s Grotto is a remarkable series of caves just outside Alghero, which can be seen on a 45-minute tour. Boats leave from the marina, and the hour-long journey takes in the dramatic coastline surrounding the limestone headland, Capo Caccia. You can also catch a bus to Capo Caccia and climb down the 654 steps to reach the caves below.
A few miles outside Alghero is the Necropolis Anghelu Rùju, an ancient (3000 BC) burial ground. There are also Nuraghic sites, conical towers of vast stone, left by Sardinia’s Bronze Age civilisation. The best is Nuraghe di Palmavera (079 979 054), a Nuraghic complex. About 15 miles south of Alghero, along a spectacular, cliff-hugging road, is the medieval settlement of Bosa. It is crowned by the treasured Castello Malaspina, an impressive 12th-century castle with fantastic views and a number of rare 14th-century Catalan frescoes.
About Scenery/Beauty Spots
The park of Porto Conte is well worth a visit. Sardinia Accommodation Ltd organizes 4x4 trips which include the park.

About Family Activities
Most of Alghero’s sights are in the lively citadel, where bars and restaurants spill out on to the car-free streets. Seven defensive towers divide the old and new towns; the 14th-century Porta Terra is a good starting point. The key building, though, is the Catalan-Gothic Cathedral (piazza Duomo), at the junction of via Roma and via Umberto. Nearby, in similar style, is the 16th-century Palazzo Albis (piazza Civica), once home to Alghero’s governors. The restored 14th-century Chiesa di San Francesco (via Carlo Alberto) is the city’s most enchanting church.
About Local Attrcations
Fresh fish and seafood dominate the menu, but locally produced salami and pecorino (sheep’s cheese) are also widely available, and malloreddus (Sardinian pasta) with sausage and tomato sauce is a standard local dish. Culinary Catalan touches include paella and crema catalana. Alghero has its own wines and Anghelu Rùju, a delicious port.
The citadel has plenty of restaurants. For typical Sardinian food, Osteria Taverna Paradiso (via Principe Umberto 29, 079 978001) boasts a fine selection of local cheeses. Il Pavone (Piazza Sulis 3, 079 979 584) has an innovative menu, including a superb squid-ink pasta. For pizza by the metre, Poco Loco (via Gramsci 9, 079 973 1034) has ten-pin bowling and live music on Friday nights.
Agriturismo Sa Mandra (Strada Aeroporto Civile, 079 999 150), north of the centre, near the airport, serves up a traditional Sardinian meat feast, a set menu of antipasti, suckling pig, lamb or boar; book well in advance.

About Driving
At sunset, take the pleasant stroll along the seafront to the port, starting from Lungomare Dante on the south side. The route is lined with a series of ramparts and towers, coming to an end at the Forte de la Magdalena - the city's most important Spanish fortification. A plaque commemorates Giuseppe Garibaldi's landing here on August 14, 1855. After all that exertion, culture and history, treat yourselves to an ice cream.
