Founded in the 1930s, its rationalist architecture and wide, tree-lined avenues give it a unique, almost nostalgic atmosphere. The real draw, however, is the stunning Lazzaretto Beach, a long stretch of white sand lapped by crystal-clear turquoise waters. Beyond the beach, explore the nearby Porto Conte Regional Park, a haven for hikers and nature lovers with its limestone cliffs, lush Mediterranean scrub, and diverse birdlife. The town itself offers a relaxed pace, with a few excellent seafood restaurants and a small marina. Fertilia is the perfect base for those seeking a quieter Sardinian experience, combining beautiful beaches with easy access to the historic charms of Alghero and the dramatic landscapes of the Capo Caccia peninsula.",[10,13,16],{"key":11,"value":12},"Police","113",{"key":14,"value":15},"Ambulance","118",{"key":17,"value":18},"General Emergency","112",[20,23,26,29,32,35,38,41],{"key":21,"value":22},"Do I need a visa?","Sardinia is part of Italy and the Schengen Area.

The healthcare system in Italy is excellent, with public hospitals (Ospedale Civile in Alghero) and pharmacies (Farmacia) widely available.

Always swim at designated beaches with lifeguards, and wear appropriate footwear on rocky trails.
