    Corrections

    When we get something wrong, we fix it and say so.

    What we correct

    Factual errors: a wrong number, date, name, place, price or rule; a quote attributed to the wrong person or translated wrongly; a source link that points to the wrong document. We also correct claims that were true when published but are presented as if they still are.

    How we correct

    • We fix the item and add a dated note at the end: "Correction, [date]: an earlier version said X. It is Y." We do not change facts silently.
    • If the error was in the title or summary, the note goes directly under the summary as well.
    • Spelling, grammar and wording that do not change the meaning are fixed without a note.
    • New information that does not mean we were wrong is marked "Updated: [date]", not as a correction.
    • Corrections are made in the English edition and carried into the other four languages.
    • Every correction is listed in the log below.

    How to report an error

    Email hello@sardinia.blog with the link to the item and what you think is wrong. A person reads every message and replies within 12 hours.

    31 Oct 2026Cala Goloritzé: booking, trail and costWe said the beach could be reached by swimming ashore from a boat. Boats may not land and the beach cannot be reached from the sea: access is on foot from the Golgo plateau only. We also corrected the 2026 price (€7 per adult, 2027 not yet published), the date of protection (Monumento Naturale since 2 December 1993) and the opening hours (one slot, 07:30 to 16:00).
