South Sardinia is the first Mediterranean destination to complete the GSTC Early Adopters Program to test its new Criteria and Indicators for Destinations. The assessment was one of the first initiatives of Visit South Sardinia, a new DMO formed by five forward-thinking municipalities: Cagliari, Domus de Maria, Muravera, Pula, and Villasimius. Located 250km west of the Italian mainland and 200km North of Tunisia, Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean. It is characterized by rocky coastline separated by sandy and rocky beaches and watched over by a network of historic fortified towers, many of which have been restored.
