Villasimius is a community in the Province of Cagliari, about 35 kilometers east of Cagliari. Because of its strategically important site, Villasimius territory has been inhabited for thousands of years. During the Aragonese, giudicati, and Spanish reigns, the Villasimius territory suffered numerous raids from pirates, and these raids caused its inhabitants to flee, becoming increasingly depopulated. From the 13th century, the village was named Carbonara. Carbonara began to be repopulated in the early 19th century under the rule of Sardinia-Piedmont. The town became a commune in the year 1838. The economy of Villasimius was traditionally based on shepherding and agriculture, and from 1875, it became based on the extraction of granite. The Villasimius tourism industry started in the late 1960s, and this industry is now Villasimius’ primary economic activity. In the late 1990s, the park, known as Carbonara National Marine Park, was founded. It comprises all the rivers surrounding the eastern Gulf of Cagliari. The park starts from the western border of Villasimius with Solanas and to its northern border with Castiadas. Villasimius is blessed with great tourist attractions and a rich culture that attracts people worldwide. Many of the most sensational beaches in the beautiful city of Sardinia are in the vicinity of the traditional coastal village of Villasimius. One of the most beautiful beaches in Villasimius harbor is Spiaggia di Porto Giunco. This beach has crystal clear water and smooth white sand, making it a rare sight, even for an island filled with natural wonders. When moving towards Capo Carbonara, tourists can view another coastal jewel: the dunes and the saltwater lake of Timi Ama. With some luck, you may catch a glimpse of the island’s pink flamingos at this beautiful lake. Sometimes, leaping dolphins can also be seen from Capo Carbonara or offshore from a boat. Also, tourists can visit the swimming bay at Cala Pira, just outside the road to the town of Costa Rei and adjacent to the island of Serpentara. This island has an intoxicating mixture of glistening white strands and aromatic maquis – Sardinia’s 7,000 nuraghi watch over the bay and bear silent testimony to the olden days. The sea in Villasimius looks like a newly cleaned sheet of glass: it is only from a distance that you can catch a glimpse of this amazing azure. Spiaggia di Campulongu, west of the Capo Carbonara lighthouse, is the ideal place to look at the sun bidding adieu at the end of the day as the beach faces west. This magnanimously extended stretch of sand is a famous venue for people who love windsurfing, and though this place is well-stocked with sun worshipers during the summer, it never feels crowded.

Fortezza Vecchia, on a promontory on the eastern side of the Gulf of Cagliari.

Although stepping inside the Old Fortress is one of the most exciting things to do in Villasimius, the surrounding view is often the most surprising aspect of the structure. The glistening ocean looks so appealing from a great height, and sweeping vistas offer the most enchanting backdrop to this famous attraction. In terms of the Fortress itself, the architecture is symbolic of the long history of Villasimius and the education that waits inside. From ancient documents and iconic images, a brief presentation offers much-needed insight into this past and reasons as to why the structure was first constructed. Standing on a promontory on the eastern side of the Gulf of Cagliari, the fort was built during the fourteenth century as a means of defense which would eventually be tested with the arrival of the Spanish Armada. Around this same time, King Philip II had organized a long line of fortified towers on the coastline which was intended to protect against any marauding invaders including the Turkish-barbarians. At the same time, this is one of the activities in Villasimius which is both inexpensive and educational. Visitors are free to visit at any time and even marvel at the tower without having to venture inside.
