Gonnesa is a small town on the South Western coast of Sardinia, it is central to Iglesias and Carbonia, close to Portoscuso, San Pietro and Sant'Antioco Islands. Gonnesa is a typical agricultural town and has its past linked to its history of mining.
Gonnesa is the perfect starting point for many holiday styles:
For sea lovers: the long sandy shoreline is composed of three main beaches; Fontanamare, Plage Mesu and Porto Paglia where you can find the characteristic Spanish tower and the fishing village. Many other amazing beaches are just a few kilometres from Gonnesa. Water sports are available in this area including surfing, windsurfing, kite surfing, and fishing
For a historic trip: many are also areas with high historic value like Porto Flavia, the Nuragic site of Serucci, the deserted mining villages such as Monte Onixeddu and Seddas Moddizzis and many more in the surrounding area.
For the countryside lovers: If you like trekking or cycling this is the perfect place for you: You would be able to walk or cycle around abandoned mines, see some of Europe’s tallest sand dunes, hidden coves, # juniper woods, sheer cliffs and coastal paths. If you are lucky you can see the pink flamingos on the Sinis Peninsula (Cagliari).
