Carloforte
Carloforte occupies the whole of Isola di San Pietro, off Sardinia's southwestern coast, and combines a waterfront café and restaurant scene with wild cliffs and swimming beaches in the surrounds. The town carries a culturally distinct identity rooted in its Ligurian-Tabarchino heritage, and its cooking blends Ligurian and Tunisian influences. Listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia, it draws independent travellers to its compact centre and scenic coastal terrain.
