Alghero Nightlife
February 7, 2009 · Print This Article
Alghero is a beautiful city surrounded by ancient walls amidst seven historic towers. By day, this is a sight to behold. At night, they provide the perfect backdrop to an evening of merrymaking and joyous festivity.
Despite the large amount of tourists passing through its streets, the city retains an undeniable small town charm. Take a stroll through the web of narrow roads, stopping by among the bars and restaurants spilling out into the cobbled streets.
If you want to feel the ocean’s calming breeze, hit the bars along the waterfront and the beach. Be there during sunset and take in the wonderful view while sipping on a cocktail of your picking. Watch the fiery orange sky across the horizon or soak in the sight of the building walls reflecting colours of apricot and peach.
Take an outdoor table at one of the restaurants and enjoy Alghero’s seafood bounty. Order the local rock lobster specialty, have some fresh fish or summon a plate of Malloreddus, Sardinia’s local pasta dish. Top it off with a honey recipe for dessert and a sip of local wine.
The night ends early in Alghero, though, with most bars closing on or before 2 AM. In the summer, you can head out to the ramparts, where nightlife bustles till dawn.
