Climate….Sardinia is not just an Island to visit in July and August….

Summer generally lasts for 6 months from May to October

Summer is the hottest, sunniest and driest time of the year, with temperatures reaching 25 degrees in July and August, and is dedicated to bathing, sailing and windsurfing. There is usually a breeze even on the hottest days.

Autumn sees grape and fungi harvesting, but it is still sunny and hot throughout October and into November, with temperatures still around 15 - 20 degrees. The beaches are empty, but the sea is still warm enough to swim in. The evenings are cooler and more comfortable.

Winter is the hunting season, and can be quite cold, with snow in the central mountains. Along the coast the temperature rarely drop below 5 degrees. Winter is the wettest period with January the least sunny month - temperatures average 6 degrees plus.

Spring is a great time to visit, the perfumed flowers are in bloom, the marquis thickens and the meadows are lush and green. Easter is a time for colourful processions, and festivals. By May the sea is warm enough to swim in again, with temperatures reaching 15 degrees plus.

The island is constantly changing throughout the year; to experience these changes is a privilege. So it might be worth ‘thinking out of the box’, and planning your visit to the island out of the main holiday months of July and August. Then the island is given back to the Sardinians and to nature....

In his travelogue D H Lawrence wrote that Sardinia was ‘left outside time and history’.
This is still true today, as the island has changed very little.
