It is near Sassari, located in the north-west of the island of Sardinia and it considered one of the doorway to Sardinia, because of its proximity to Fertilia airport.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s not all! In fact <a href=\"\/algherocityguide.html\"><strong>Alghero<\/strong><\/a> is right in the center of <strong>\u201cRiviera di Corallo\u201d<\/strong> whose name is due to the great quantity of coral in the seabed. The fine quality coral is very much-sought by the scuba divers and it is very important for the local culture and economy, also present in its coat of arms.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend you to go and visit it, also because the <strong>Alghero beaches<\/strong> are beaches of rare beauty and dream like places which are worth a visit even for a short drive by car: just check <a href=\"\/car-rental-alghero-airport\/\">car rental alghero airport<\/a> to book your auto.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, Alghero \u201c<strong>Maria Pia<\/strong>\u201d beach has been awarded as one of the top ten beaches to visit in Italy by TripAdvisor 2018 travellers\u2019 choice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mugoni Beach<\/strong><br \/>\nIt is a long beach with a fine sand and a fresh water even during the summertime. The seabed is sandy and the beach is protected by a thick woods. Following a pave patch you will discover the second beach of Mugoni, la Stalla. You can easily reach them moving from Alghero to Capo Caccia.<\/p>\n<p>About 10 km after Fertilia, you will find a roundabout. Turn right towards Capo Caccia and after about 2 km turn on the left; you will get to Mugoni. There is a big car park (free until the end of June) where you can leave your car.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_71\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-71\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-71 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carrentalinsardinia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/mugoni.jpg\" alt=\"Mugoni beach in Alghero Sardinia\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carrentalinsardinia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/mugoni.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.carrentalinsardinia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/mugoni-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-71\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mugoni Beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>La Speranza Beach<\/strong><br \/>\nIts real name is Porto Pollina because of the old tower placed along the coastline remembering the \u201caragonese\u201d period.<\/p>\n<p>The name Speranza, instead, is due to a little church placed in the surroundings.
