Stintino |
|
Stintino is an old fishing village (there are still the
old tuna-net supports), boasts two well sheltered ports that
mark the boundary of the village. These ports offer mooring
services and are home to the famous wooden hulled boats with Lateen sails (launches or
Ligurian fishing boats), which were once used for fishing, but nowadays are raced at the
annual regata of the 'Vela Latina' (The Lateen Sails).
|
These ports are also home to the boat
builders who repair and build new wooden hulls.
After Stintino the coast along the whole Gulf of Asinara is gently sloping.
Next we come to Porto Torres which links
Sardinia to the Italian Continent, Corsica and France.
