We'll be staying in Porto Alabe in May and would like to know how easy it is to get from Alghero to Bosa. Most people seem to recommend a hire car but I'd like to avoid that if at all possible. Are there any direct buses, and if so, how frequent are they? We'll be arriving on a Saturday.
Also, could anyone advise how much spending money we'll need? The last time I visited Italy was pre-Euros so don't really have any idea about the cost of eating out etc.
Having read the other posts it seems like a great place to visit so looking forward to it!
Timetables for Bosa-Alghero buses are at http://www.ferroviesardegna.it/MACOMER%20ORARI%20AGGIORNATI/AUTOLINEA%20219.htm (faster) and http://www.ferroviesardegna.it/SASSARI%20ORARI%20AGGIORNATI/AUTOLINEA%20312.htm (slower).

Grazie, Fabbo.
The information was very helpful.
When are you going, if you haven't already gone? And where are you staying?
We are in Porto Alabe next week :)
We ate there twice. both times the food was reasonable and served fairly quickly. The white house wine wasn't too good but drinkable. The house red was much better.
Only complaint was that the waiters were rather surly and not very helpful. We tried a variely of fish and vegetable based dishes. All were very good.
Alghero is well served by cheap airlines to its airport, and the beautiful and engaging old town echoes strong Catalan and pre-unification Italian (Pisan, Genoese, Toscan and Piedmontese) influences.
The hotels are still appearing beachfront in the tower crane congested new town, which reflects Alghero's rising holiday star. The centro storico, which hosts the port rather than the lido, has been historically ring fenced by castellated fortifications for centuries, and so the resort can expand without detriment to history - does not happen elsewhere very often !
Old town in foreground including the fortified walls facing the dock, much favoured area for the passageata. 0ne killometre and more away, the new town develops like any thriving small city
This is the view approaching the port of the old town, the Cattedrale at Piazza Duomo being the centred tallest point. To the left is the bell tower of the 14th century San Francesco convent, now San Francesco hotel, the only place to stay in the old town. (See hotel tip)
Pleased to say we'll be going for 8 days at the end of August, straight from 9 days on Rome - expect updates!
