the 2 seas of the Tharros peninsula

The first 9 km are a bit boring, but the rest is fun and technical.

The archaeological area of Tharros represents one of the most precious testimonies of ancient Sardinian history. Among the necropolises and Nuragic, Phoenician and Punic remains, the tower of San Giovanni stands out. This coastal tower, built between the 16th and 17th centuries, was built to defend the coast from the incursions of pirates and Barbary corsairs.

The lighthouse of Capo San Marco stands majestically on the tip of the Sinis promontory, overlooking the ancient ruins of Tharros. Still in operation, the lighthouse and its surroundings were the setting for the film "A Small Southern Business" by Rocco Papaleo. From this elevated position, the views are enchanting and breathtaking.

Tharros (also Tharras, Tarrae or Tarras) is an ancient city on the west coast of Sardinia, of which only remains remain. It is located 20 km west of Oristano in the province of the same name, on the southern tip of the Sinis peninsula, which is only 100 m wide in places. The name Tharros first appeared on a Roman milestone. Founded by Nuragics, the place was expanded into a city by the Phoenicians and taken over by the Carthaginians and Romans. Between 827 and 1070 AD it was the capital of the Judicate of Arborea. Ibn Jubar (1145–1217) reported as early as 1183 that he had seen a ruined city when his ship sought shelter from a storm on the Sardinian promontory.

The Capo San Marco Lighthouse is an active lighthouse located on the Capo San Marco promontory at the tip of the Sinis Peninsula overlooking the ruins below Tharros. The structure is located in the municipality of Cabras, in the west of the island on the sea of Sardinia.

The tower is located on the Sinis peninsula on the west coast of Sardinia in the province of OristanoSan Giovanni di Sinis is a small town.

Perhaps the oldest objects, but not found during regular excavations, are bronze figures from the Nuragic culture. Cypriot-Mycenaean pottery from the 13th and 12th centuries BC was found. BC, which suggests maritime trade. No corresponding quantities of imported ceramics have been found in any other Phoenician-Punic settlement in Sardinia. Tharros apparently had close relations with the Etruscans as early as the 8th and 7th centuries, as evidenced by Buccherovases. Giovanni Spano estimated the haul from over 100 looted graves to be around 4,000 scarabs made of agate, Egyptian glass river, Monte Arci jasper, carnelian, lapis lazuli and glazed clay, half of them set in imported gold.
