    Buggerru is a charming tourist village built on an ancient mining community founded in 1864. Today hosting around a thousand inhabitants, the town preserves the memory of its intense mining activity until 1979.

    It develops in a radiant manner along the suggestive mouth of the valley of Mount Caitas, baptized with the name of the famous Malfidano mine, the flagship of the mining industry between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This location was already known by the Romans for the presence of silver. The modern port is dominated by the entrance to the Henry tunnel, today an open-air museum, once crossed by a train used to transport the extracted mineral. It was nicknamed "petite Paris" for the environment recreated by the managers and their families, belonging to the French company that managed the mining activity. Its history is complex, marked by strikes and social tensions in the context of the mining industry.

    Its enchanting coastline, with Buggerru beach on the right of the port, offers breathtaking scenery over the blue sea.
