Cabras is a coastal town on the west coast of Sardinia in Italy. The beaches are beautiful, most with natural dune systems and flora and fauna. As well as the beach, there is also some good hiking, cycling, and walking in the surrounding area. Cabras is a lovely, quiet place, and great for a city break to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. There are a few small markets, plenty of cafes selling cheap but very good coffee, souvenir shops, bakeries, post office, small supermarkets, clothing shops, and a couple of places where you can get tourist information.
There are many different accommodation types in Cabras, the most popular of which are camping and motor camping sites, as well as guesthouses; however there are also a couple of Cabras hostels and hotels located in town and its surrounds and Sardinia. The entire coast can get crowded during the peak summer season (July to August), and though Cabras is relatively quiet in comparison to some of the bigger seaside resorts, it is still worth booking in advance if traveling during these months. Most accommodation (not including the campsites), include breakfast, hot water showers, Wi-Fi, linen, towels, and toiletries. Some accommodation also provides tourist information such as maps and information about onward travel. If you are driving, check in advance with your accommodation provider about where parking is available. Hostels in Cabras usually offer private or shared rooms, with either a private or shared bathroom, most hotels and guesthouses have a private bathroom, however some do have shared bathrooms as well.
