Via A. Balia, 45, Santadi

Santadi is in the Sulcis subregion of southwest Sardinia, inland from the southwestern coast (the sea is about 14 km away). The local terrain within ~15 km is low hills and plateaus with Mediterranean maquis, areas of cork oak, olive groves, vineyards and pasture. The area belongs to the historical Sulcis-Iglesiente mining district; the wider mining district is part of the Parco Geominerario Storico e Ambientale della Sardegna (a UNESCO Global Geopark). The commune and its surroundings are within a wine-producing area (Carignano del Sulcis DOC) and host local wineries, including the cooperative/producer associated with the name Santadi. There are widespread archaeological remains of the Nuragic period and scattered rural hamlets and farms in the vicinity. Nearest larger settlements are the town of Sant'Antioco (island town with local services and beaches) and Carbonia (the regional service town with shops, offices and a hospital). No ski areas or alpine relief are present within 15 km.
