Geocache Description:

Sardinia is a wonderful island where to go for a nice holidays. Placed near Alguero (a city where you can still find people that speak CATALAN coming from the XVI century) is this cache. In a nice beach with an awesome panorama, after looking a bit you'll find this cache :)


Alghero is a beautiful city that belonged to the Catalan Kingdom around XVIth century; nowadays, people there still speak a dialect of catalan.

The cache is placed in the sorroundings of a beach in the city of Fertilia (3 km far from Alghero city). This beach is 300 meters far from the Youth Hostel placed in this city. Under the dense and thorny bushes, hidden by few small stones, there is the cache: a plastic box with a red lid.

Fortunately, Alghero is easily reachable by the connexions of RyanAir (www.ryanair.com) with Barcelona, London and Frankfurt. Hopefully, this cache will receive visits often!!!

  • The Virolai (the sacred himn to the Virgin of Montserrat).
