Cruise from Porto Torres

Porto Torres, in the province of Sassari, is one of the most populated and tourist centers in Sardinia. Located in the plain of Nurra, it includes in its territory the Island of Asinara and the Island of Piana. Two rivers mark its boundaries: the Fiume Santo and the Riu Mannu. Porto Torres has very ancient origins, as evidenced by the Neolithic remains present on the territory, visible above all in the Necropolis of Su Crucifissu Mannu.

In recent years, tourism has experienced a considerable growth, especially thanks to the increase in Cruise ships that call or depart from the port of Porto Torres. We recommend the excursion to the Asinara national park, where you can admire magnificent landscapes and immerse yourself in Sardinian and Turritan culture. If you are passionate about Spas, the Terme Centrali, also known as the Palazzo di Re Barbaro, is a must-see archaeological site that will take you on a dip in ancient Rome.

The Terme Maetzke are also very important. If you walk through the city, get lost as far as the small church of San Gavino a Mare, also called "Balai Vicino" or go to the Church of Santu Ischabizzadu, called "Balai lontano".

The Turritan cuisine is naturally rich in fresh fish, try the anchovies in tomato sauce or the freshly caught octopus salad! These dishes are often accompanied by vegetables, such as stewed courgettes, aubergines and fresh broad beans when in season. Characteristic of the region is the traditional use of snails in the kitchen, which are even imported from Tunisia due to the high demand.

Discover the Mediterranean with a cruise from Porto Torres full of emotions and adventures.
