Calasetta — Il Borgo Ligure di Sardegna
Sardinia
Calasetta was founded in the 1770s by families of Ligurian origin relocated from the Tunisian island of Tabarka, and the town's regular grid street plan and local Tabarchino dialect still set it apart from the rest of Sardinia. The flat streets and small harbour give an easy walk with a surprising Ligurian flavour.
