## Visit Piazza Civica

Activities

#### Connecting the harbour with the Old Town’s streets, this central square is a good place to start your explorations and one that you will come back to many times.

Eat and drink in one of Piazza Civica’s cafés and restaurants, visit the nearby cathedral and shop in the high-end fashion and jewelry shops that line this unpretentious square in the heart of historic Alghero.

You can’t miss the Piazza Civica when exploring the centro storico (historic center) of this romantic Sardinian city. If coming from the harbor, pass through the city’s 16th-century sea walls at the Porta a Mare. You’ll soon find yourself in the Piazza Civica.

Once the civic hub of this formerly Catalan city, this well-preserved piazza has both Spanish and Italian elements. Walk over its ancient cobblestones and look up at the stone houses with their tiny wrought-iron balconies and wooden window shutters.

A must-do is ordering an espresso or meal at Caffè Costantino in the 16th-century Palazzo d’Albis. Its terrace is great for people-watching, while inside await tiny tables in a timeless setting that oozes Italian charm.

Outside of mass hours, visit the Cattedrale di Santa Maria by following the Piazza Civica out to the Piazza Duomo. Enjoy a short reprieve from the burning sun in the cathedral’s cool and dark interior. Pay the fee to climb up to its bell tower and see the blue bay beyond the city’s terra cotta-colored roofs.

The nearby religious museum, the Diocesan Museum of Sacred Art, stays open until the evening and showcases silvers relics, wooden sculptures, icons and other paintings.

When it is dinner time, order a typical Sardinian meal of local produce such as squid and vegetables.

Buy a sweet dessert in the square’s gelateria (ice cream parlor), with its wrought-iron gates, and join the locals inla passeggiata, the Italian ritual of an evening stroll with family. A favorite route in Alghero runs from the port, along the Piazza Civica and the Piazza Duomo to Lungomare, a small beach in the heart of the city.

Piazza Civica is accessible to pedestrians only, so get transportation to Porta a Mare and walk from there. During the summer months it can get very crowded in the Old Town, so come very early or very late in the day to have the Piazza Civica (almost!) to yourself.

8.6/10 Excellent! (767 reviews)

What an amazing experience. We wish we had more days there. We decided to spend our last two nights in Olbia at the Delta but we were super surprised at how great the hotel was with everything. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The rooms were large and clean. The gym was open 24 hours. Although the gym wasn’t big and didn’t have a lot of machines, it was nice to have to open all the time. The hotel is close to the airport which is perfect. If you don’t mind walking, 20 minutes and you’re at the town with the marina, amazing restaurants, great walking sights, the Ferris wheel and so much more. The pool was very big and quiet. It wasn’t warm, but we were with two kids and they didn’t mind swimming in it. The food at the hotel was excellent. Breakfast had so many options for everyone. The bar was spacious and clean. The rooms had a kettle and provided coffee and tea. We travelled with two kids and they were very happy with everything. We will return to this hotel.
