About Corsica / Sardinia - an ideal Bareboat Charter Holiday Destination
If it was good enough for Napoleon Boneparte and the Aga Khan, then it is definitely worth a look. If you've sailed Turkey's Turquoise Coast and experienced the idyllic anchorages of the Greek Islands and you think you have seen the best the Mediterranean has to offer, then think again. The ancient islands of Corsica and Sardinia are possibly the best kept secrets of the Western Mediterranean.
It is their semi-isolation which has protected them from the frenzied tourist hordes that have scoured mainland Europe for places to get away from it all. Horatio Nelson unsuccessfully urged the British Government to annex Sardinia because of its abundance of natural harbours and strategic importance.
Some regions of the twin islands of Corsica and Sardinia remain virtually the same as the Roman galleys must have found them over two thousand years ago.
Yet there are other areas on the two Mediterranean islands which are as organised and as sophisticated as the tourist hubs of mainland Europe. Certainly Corsica and Sardinia contain the distilled essence of Europe along with a touch of timelessness.

The Sards excel in the art of spit-roasting, young pig and lamb being the popular meats cooked either on a wooden or iron spit, which is slowly turned over a fierce fire while bacon fat drips onto the meat. Often the offal will be twisted around the spit and cooked along with the meat, their innards, sa trattalia or sa trixiuredda, are served with various sauces and vegetables.
