Budoni

Budoni is a municipality in northeastern Sardinia with white sand beaches stretching along the Mediterranean coastline. It includes several villages and settlements, each with its own local services and residential areas.

The area was settled during the Nuragic period, as shown by archaeological remains scattered across the territory. This ancient occupation continued through Roman times, when the coast saw significant maritime activity.

The place is deeply rooted in Sardinian traditions that show up in local celebrations and regional dishes like fregola pasta. You can experience these customs at weekly markets and through the food people eat in their daily lives.

The municipality is divided into several villages, each offering its own local services and beach access. The best time to visit is from spring through early fall, when the weather is pleasant and beaches are most enjoyable.

Archaeologists discovered a substantial collection of ancient Roman coins off the northeastern coast, revealing the area's past importance as a maritime trading hub. These underwater finds offer visitors today a glimpse into how busy this coastline once was with commercial activity.
